If that's her views, maybe she needs to go. What this city is doing is outrageous. City workers can wear hazmat suits if need be. How bout cleaning the homeless up or put up toilets so this would happen. City look leaders make up too many excuses. This is a health issue. How Oakland is a place to visit is beyond me. I've never seen it look worse.

Put up toilets so this wouldn't happen is what I meant to say.

Simply, They tried this in Paris; didn't do any good. Still using the streets as a toilet. Also if I recall SF tried this and failed as well.

They trashed the toilets in SF. If they are not house broken they need to be interned somewhere. It seems all they want to do is laze around and get high and get drunk. Then find a big lot and give them what they want. Cheaper in the long run and they would be off the streets and out of the parks.

That figures.. I'm all for a big lot though
