#1 It's all about signaling never about fixing stuff for the usual suspects.

#2 The homeless were rounded up ahead of a Bidet visit somewhere. The MSM didn't screech about that.

#3 Remember the Desantis plane, dropping off illegals at Martha's Vineyard last year? The MSM screeched for two days, then went silent when they were all rounded up and sent to the old Otis AFB in Sandwich, MA.

#5 Let's convert the stadium into a homeless camp and play baseball in the street like when we were kids. Funny, I don't remember having homeless camps way back when.

#6 ^ Over times past there were Hoovervilles, Okie encampments during the dustbowl and always Skid Row.

What we did not have is them in your face downtown.

#7 San Diego PD is evicting/ticketing those who have made the streets and sidewalks in Gaslamp Quarter and East Village their own personal shitholes prior to Padres' Opening Day.

Hep A outbreak a couple years ago should've been the lesson to get the tent cities under control

#8 I suspect that the goal is to protect the disadvantaged from Colorado Rockies baseball.

#9 Loony liberal mayors all across the country using the same playbook:

San Diego police clear downtown homeless encampments as city prepares for Padres opening day

Sweeping the problem under the rug but soon enough the dirt will be right back on the sidewalks.

#10 The city of Denver is facing criticism from homeless advocates

Proving that they are retards. Stadium has a lot of park and ride to get fans into the seats. Hundreds if not thousands of vehicle break ins would be impossible to sweep under the rug, as you say.

Now that I mention it, perhaps they should have been left to camp. Couple goes and spends couple hundred on a day at the game, and it smells like shit. In fact, it smells so bad it is the conversation instead of the game, only to get off the bus where they parked and find their vehicle broken into, everything loose plus the stereo gone. Have that conversation.

#11 The usual suspects in San Diego are telling us we need more housing. No, we don't. We need tent cities out in the boondocks surround by concertina wire to keep the bums from moving back to our sidewalks.

#12 San Diego has more homeless now than ever.The City of San diego gave homeless vouchers for motels in El Cajon (County). Now the mayor of El Cajon is pissed.

#13 Sure am glad they moved last year's All Star game away from racist Atlanta to enlightened, liberal Denver...???

#14 My sister lives a block and a half from Coors field. You can't go a block without seeing homeless people accosting you or tents on corners. I don't even visit anymore because of it.

I know local businesses and people have complained about the homeless but nothing is done. A thriving business district is dying because businesses and people are starting to move out. Her neighbor had someone shit on their front doorstep. Not a place I will visit and spend my money on.

#15 If the stars aligned I'd stop by Coors Field and catch a game because I like the stadium and atmosphere. I think Jimenez was still on the pitching roster last time that happened.

From what I've heard of Denver in general, and this area specifically, not for free all-you-can-handle Rocky Dogs and Beer.
