NYP: Cockroaches in the food and mice crawling on beds. Constant assaults and thefts. Sanctuaries that feel like jail cells.
This is what life is like inside three major Big Apple homeless shelters and why many indigent residents say they’d rather take their chances on the street over entering a system they say is broken.
“I used to leave here after bed check and go sleep on the A train going to Far Rockaway. You can’t really sleep here. It ain’t safe,” Sean McAloney, a 50-year-old US Navy veteran, recently told The Post outside of the notorious 30th Street Intake Center where he’s lived for the last six months.
“Last night, this kid who hurt his back was in the shower and this big dude came in and started pressing up on him, naked. He wouldn’t leave. That’s scary! It’s not going anywhere good. That’s why I shower fully clothed,” he continued. more here
Oh for crying out loud. The first photo shows a homeless person with a pit bull.
Homeless with a dog in tow is one of my “pet” peeves. Particularly if it’s leashed and isn’t allowed to seek a better master
You can’t even take care of yourself. What are you doing dragging a dog through your hell too?
I never give money or food to someone begging with a dog. I’d rather adopt the dog on the spot and relieve all parties of that nonsense.
The dog is his best friend and maybe his only friend. If you tried to take the dog or hurt the guy, you would probably come out bloody.
What was the dogs life, before the homeless guy?
It’s a shelter industry and human suffering is propagated and exploited.
Every single dollar in funding towards NYC’s shelters, including those shelters which are slated for victims of domestic abuse have been stolen by Bill de Blasio and his wife named ‘Charlatan’, organized crime, the widespread corrupt NYC politicians such as Schumer and the Cuomo Family, the law-making/breaking polluted City Council, the thieving NYCHA (housing), residential rehabs for drug users such as Samaritan Village, Daytop, Bridge Plaza Treatment and Rehabilitation Clinic (Medicaid fraud), Convent House et al, district reptiles such as the very-phony AOC and accomplices, and Albany bill-makers who set aside massive amounts of funds for themselves. Being a former NYC resident and city worker myself this info is valid.
