Im gonna agree but with a large caveat that Im going to try and attempt to change your mind with.
Many probably have a rap sheet a mile long now, but unlike criminals who commit crimes using premeditated thought, many homeless crimes are mindless because most are quite literally insane.
Ever see Attack On Titan? Most homeless are just like Titans who may murder humans, but they dont know or care thats what they are doing.
Id wage probably 70-80% of homeless would be better in a mental hospital. Locked away from society but receiving drugs or treatment. Yes at a cost to tax payers, but it would keep our streets cleaner and communities safer. Id argue we need to bring these back and consider it as important as paying for fire departments/etc.
Then maybe 15-30% are only homeless because they are drug addicts. Although the insane can also be drug addicts, the difference is if these people werent drug addicts they probably could lead productive lives. This is the group should that be policed and jailed as necessary. Violent drug users/abusers/etc. Depending on severity or willingness Id argue some could be rehabilitated. Those people exist. But maybe only half this group probably needs to be in jail.
Then there is the Negligible%-2% group that is quite literally just a normal sane person who had the worst fucking luck befall them, one thing after another. For these people, non profit groups churches and local communities can easily help.
Its great. Annoying how every episode spends the first 5 minutes replaying the highlights of the prior episode, and these are already only short episodes anyways. But the story is great!
Homeless should be in jail imo.
