Talking to the homeless, alcoholics, addicts and anyone that presented with a diagnosed psychological or neurological disorder and writing an after report was only part of what a post grad psychologist did to relieve the case backlog around 116th St in Manhattan in 1970 at Columbia. The problems people present today are the manifest same as their parents. Whatever they are or are doing isn't subject to your approval for public funding.

Nick, this isn't a primer on alcohol or drugs in shelters. It's about addressing homelessness and we don't have to solve all societies ills before we start. It's about civic responsibility.Lastly, I know the Catholic church has stepped forward and picked up the responsibility that should be the states. The state should take the lead.

No

I've e-mailed the R-G (using my real e-mail and everything) and the latest story from the R-G (22 Days ago)  on what I believe to be an innocuous post was as follows:

 “The algorithm in and of itself does nothing, it only responds to the votes of your fellow commenters and it was they — and no one at The Register-Guard — who deemed your comment uncivil. Hope this clears things up for you.

I am still unconvinced since almost all of my 'uncivil' posts have been deleted after normal business hours and on weekends and that those of "Boozer" are of a similar time frame,  I still think hese 'removals' are by liberal types who are working during those times at the R-G.  I especially believe that since their removal is in such a short time frame after posting and still occur after comments are made regarding them.

Obviously, the contractors have made no response whatsoever.  They want to keep their startup going.
