San Francisco spends millions to shelter vulnerable residents in dilapidated hotels; results are disastrous.

My fucking God! I really was not expecting this: 34% of people (they can keep track of) in S.F. "supportive housing" are literally DEAD! And another 29% are back on the street? And we're supposed to keep pumping more money into this approach because it's "progressive"? https://t.co/LHN2EeTjMu

Christ almighty, if 1/3 of people in your program are dead, it's not harm reduction, it's a fucking holocaust.

I'm going to take a little break. I had no idea.
I mean I did know that street homeless fatality rate is perhaps close to 10%, and that's unconscionable.

So social workers kill too! Maybe at a higher rate than cops do. Who knew?

I'm deleting my first tweet (pictured) because I think I'm very wrong. It's still a horrible mortality. But not at all what I said. But it's of people who left the program. Not of everybody.

But really, at one point do you say, and yes, despite the experts and peer-reviewed evidence, maybe what we're doing isn't working? pic.twitter.com/B1QmoY2e32
