textAN AMERICAN EPIDEMIC: Hate Crimes Against Homeless People by chance martin
As disturbing as the case descriptions contained in NCH's report are, what is even more ominous is that homeless people have almost no protection against such cruelty.

textWho Is Dr Pablo Stewart and Why Is He Willing To Sacrifice Lives For Newsom Money? by ??
I just heard a debate on KQED between Dr Pablo Stewart and Chris Daly about Cash Not Care. While little new came up it was apparent that Dr Stewart had an agenda beyond reducing homeless deaths. I was struck by his references to SF as a magnate for the homeless and his unwillingness to condemn smear campaigns that by demonizing the homeless add to mental health issues.
