"Shithole countries" - Trump

Some of the news organizations that gleefully repeated "shithole" ad infinitum are careful to use euphemisms like "undocumented immigrant" for "illegal alien." Why?:D

Why did he change his story from "didn't recall" to "didn't say", then? Doesn't sound like someone with a lot of integrity to me.
 
'Zhat you walking down the middle of the street w(R)ongTard?

I see BB sitting over there on the sidewalk beside the green building.
 
Except for the (apparent) lack of Ishmael, this thread delivers pretty much what I expected it would.


Whatever you do, DON'T CALL THEM DEPLORABLE!

About 7 percent of homeless people live in rural areas, but homeless advocates say services in those areas don't get as much federal funding as they deserve — partly because the number of homeless people might be underestimated.

Official homelessness numbers come from the point-in-time count: A 24-hour tally of a community's homeless population on the streets or in shelters. But in rural areas such as Wyoming and South Dakota where shelter space is scarce, people often crash with friends or stay in cheap motels on cold nights.

The 24-hour counts that happen across the country in January will miss these people in the official tally.

"They're not out in the open like they are in a larger city, because they find places," says Jennifer Cruz, a volunteer who drove around Cheyenne, Wyo., during a point-in-time count. "I just met a gentleman who's been sleeping on his brother's couch, but he is homeless."

At first blush, Dempsey, 43, doesn’t fit the stereotype of the chronically homeless. She’s neatly dressed in flowered capris, her hazel eyes rimmed with eyeliner. But in Fredericksburg, as in other small towns, suburbs and rural corners of the country, the homeless are often hidden, out of sight and mind, hard to reach and hard to help, say people who work with the homeless.

This poses a challenge for states. The causes of homelessness in small towns are the same as in big cities: poverty, mental illness, inadequate housing, domestic violence and the psychological wounds of war, according to the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness. But rural areas are more likely to be poor, with limited transportation, making it that much harder for the homeless to get to a center that can provide counseling, a housing voucher or medical care.

A handful of states are making strides toward tackling the issue, although most of the work is done by nonprofits. Advocates say most states are not doing enough and that a different approach is needed to solve the problem of rural homelessness.

The takeaway: there are a lot of homeless in rural Gawd fearing right wing America, but as long as they're out of sight, they're out of mind!
