To think, these are the individuals that the homeless advocates are fighting for. Sure can’t wait to see how many times a week this happens at the Mercer Frazer lot…. This is going to be hilarious. Can’t wait to watch this self implode, going to be a great show… Hopefully it doesn’t cost us on the taxpayer side!
