Find out where the democrat idiots live and ship the homeless to their neighborhoods and tell them “here’s a chance for you to put your money where your mouth is. Have fun!”
this makes sense. Vegas is giving people shelters.
While one feels sorry for the homeless, we can’t let them kill off a city. What they need is a place to have a shower and sleep safe. Vegas is giving them that in homeless shelters.
Send them back where they cane from.....(majority are likely from) California.
Lol! True!
The Boston “medical” protesters should be protesting this callous law.
$1,000 isn't high enough a fine. Should be $100,000. The deterrence-effect would be greater, and at the same time the city could completely eliminate its budget deficit!
(Yeah, yeah, I know... It wouldn't work!)

The ‘buss ticket out of town” was practiced by many cities for years.
Too many small towns caught on & protested that they ere getting inundated with undesirables.
I think it is a rotten practice-—but Obama did it on a major scale when he brought Somalis here. Just ask Minneapolis/St Paul & Boise.
Reno better pay some attention to the moves that Las Vegas is taking.
Problems with homeless & crimes in Reno is rapidly escalating.
That is great.
But the ACLU will come out swinging..saying they are allowed to live where they want, even in the streets..and sleep there too.
I know at least that some cities can’t force the mentally ill into treatment or even facilities.
Do you know about any of that in vegas?
Las Vegas not so much.
Homeless normally like warmer climes.
No, been to Vegas twice. Surprisingly I loved the place even though I don’t gamble (have terrible luck, tried it once and it isn’t for me). The Caesars palace, the dolphin pond, the shooting ranges outside town. Awesome
What could be fairer than a law like that?
Besides the homeless, it also forbids millionaires, and the rest of us from sleeping on the streets. - Tom
I went to the shooting ranges!!
They were great!
And I like to gamble, I used to love it but as I got older I got somewhat wiser.
NO ONE has luck over time. Or casinos wouldn’t exist.
Great bachelor parties there when I was in my 20s and early 30s.
Ah, the days :)
Aye, there's the rub. As soon as the influx of Newbies exceed the housing capacity, they are free to camp out on the streets. That's how the California ACLU parleyed that trick.
Well, just build more homeless housing.
(Which will lead to more homeless people arriving.) - Tom
IMO, that's the plan. Lots of money to be made in "helping the homeless".
Roger that.
Great idea but you know they’re the “elites” and they expect to live the good life as a socialist/communist and not the life of a peon that they will “rule”. :-)
Vegas depends on conventions and tourists, neither of which has a high tolerance for derelicts and bums. It is a city where illegals drive late model trucks but homeless riff-raff can’t walk a few blocks from the Strip to a shelter because shelters don’t allow drugs or booze.
Over time perhaps - but my first gambling experience was with a one-armed bandit
Stick in a fiver.
Pull the lever.
Kaching - I lose $3
Pull the lever again.
Kaching - I lose $2
That was enough for me. I prefer the stock markets - haven’t lost there in the past 16 years (but no spectacular wins either except one). The plodder be me.
I try not to lie or obfuscate on this board.
Don’t know if i used that word right :)
I have lost likely 100k over 30 years in casinos.
Did i have a lot of great times? yeah And a lot of awful ones
Would I do it differently? YES!! I would TRAVEL and save more and see things but I LOVED it until only 4 years ago when I said “what am I doing?!?!” :)
Now you can gasp at the amount I lost :)
The truest respect I show a freeper is when I don’t lie about my life.
ciao
