    If libraries were open late they would be filled with homeless people looking for a safe, warm place.

    What I’m saying is we need safe warm places for the homeless AND libraries to be open late.

      Crazy idea : let’s use churches to accommodate homeless people since you can find them fucking everywhere, surely they’re not used after 8pm, and that’s basically the point of them in the first place, no?

        As much as I despise organized religion they aren’t fully to blame for the situation. Some of them have really made an effort.

        Religion even at its very very best can’t do that job. That is why we need the government.

          They are if they don’t pay the taxes that would have been used to help with situations such as this.
