January 29th , 2016 Back in Texas
Imagine a shelter without churches, you could go to this shelter and have full constitutional rights, regardless of creed. Back in Texas, no less a dreamer than Ross Perot imagined something like this. The good businessmen of Dallas agreed. No more will we pawn of the welfare clause of our constitution to the churches when it come to the poorest of our poor.
No longer will our homeless be prey to the church staffers, devil's soldiers from god, an elite trained crew of the minions determined to cram the name of Jesus down your throat. Who abuse and humiliate the weakest among them. No longer would the fearful, sunburned, dehydrated, frightened homeless person covered with ant bites be greeted with shame from God on high for the conditions of his skin! Back in Texas, Ross Perot had a better idea -
build a shelter where the homeless could face a compassionate, professional with a code of ethics to follow. There would be effective recourse constitutionally guaranteed fairness that the churched could never provide.
Well, Hallelujah, god dog, we thought! We danced in the streets, except for one little thing. You had to prove you were homeless. So dig this, here's what they did. You show up shivering, like a mother-lover (it’s a wet cold in texas) and to prove you're homeless.
==============================================================
Next Edition of Back in Texas:
Will cover 20 years of false diagnosis and abuse in Texas Mental Health care system, costing our taxpayers $100,000 for nothing. Beta at Stout clinic says insane.
Future Columns of Back in Texas:
May cover Chief David Brown - an 80% drop in police brutality complaints. But with death threat from cop unions all over the nation. Bad cops are angry and quitting.
911 reforms: cussing 911 operators on tape and getting away with it. Zoo calls
Who knows maybe a Klan rally back in ‘87 where I was congratulated by a Republican judge in front of a black prosecutor and communist attorney for throwing horse shit on the Klan accidentally hitting a pig.
===================================================
So you are crowded onto a bus
Sleet pouring through an open roof
To a chained in jail 8 freezing bumpy miles away where you have to listen to 20 minutes of catholic shit followed by 20 minutes or protestant shit, followed by 20 minutes of evangelical shit.
Shivering coughing
January in Texas, swine flu
Everyone sick
Everyone captive
This was supposed to be a government run shelter.
Where the fuck are we?
Herded into
Gulping fast
Almost nothing to eat.
Hurries, shoved deeper into the bowels of the churched dungeon
Down a dark hallway.
Scared and scared to show it.
Black, white, brown, together
All strangers
Angry at catholics
Protestants
Evangelicals
Gay and straight
Together homeless
Take off your clothes
You are locked in.
Put your clothes in that locker
Move it!
Move it!
40 men.
8 showers
(slippery, wet and exciting contact unavoidable)
Move it.
Move it.
Coughing and scared
They hand you a robe and say shut up
Mother-fucker lights out. They bus you back in the morning, but don't give you the slip to prove you’re homeless.
Ross Perot, this is Michael up in Denver. How much blood has flowed down the drains at the union gospel mission on Irving Blvd.
=================================================
Informal Note
At senior support services will and Leonard grabbed at a phone, are heard on 911 telling me to hang up. Threatening to cut off the phone. Cornered me, couldn't let me out of their office.
ALL FOR CALLING 911!
The police come and I asked them to investigate esp the 911 tape of the 911 call to prove that I had been intimidated and that the 911 operator sided w/ those trying to grab the phone from me violently! Julie Romero knows what happened. I wanted a guy who had threatened to kill me for supporting Sanders to say it again proudly on my phone.
But he never really wanted to kill me. The 911 operator got caught siding with people grabbing at my phone I told them don’t touch me.

What we really need in this country is to socialize the real estate market. This is an international problem faced by all wealthy nations. Under regulated capitalism, the real estate sector can not provide its products in an efficient manner because the contradictions of capitalism prevent free or fair market housing.
The ideal capitalist model cannot be achieved by a capitalist real estate market. Why not? The answer is simpler than you think. To create false value, inflated value, in the housing market, greedy capitalists employ a variety of measures, but one of the most important is to put a bottom on the housing market. An artificial bottom to the housing market atop of which the great builders construct their house of cards.
While conservatives gripe about taxes the far bigger rip off and far bigger input to the U.S systems comes from false value accruing to the already wealthy is to wrest control of the home-ownership investment scam which is killing capitalism as we knew it and leaving us with perot-trump fascism. Obamacare delayed the socializing of medicine, but it was a start.
Tiny homes, more intelligent housing codes that admit substandard and save lives (at least in cold cities like Denver) and all that will chip away at the false floor that lifts all home values, rents, cost of living, misery and inefficiency in a competitive world… dig? But that's just the beginning, when we pull out the rug the house of cards tumbles down and then we live affordably on the ruins of a stupid housing scam.
Tel Aviv, in one of the most conservative right-wing nations on Earth.
Homeless people have the answers. Always have. Roommates, tiny homes, squatting, sharing, living and breathing and trying to pull the (false) bottom out of the real estate market. All the homeless efforts at alternatives are met with restrictive laws, police brutality, unchecked homeless staffer brutality and the like.
When a shelter staffer causes such sick insecurity on the part of the homeless, it helps put a bottom on the housing market. People will either camp out, die or lose toes because if the churches let shelters be a nice place to stay, it would take the bottom out of the housing market. Just as surely as allowing tiny homes, urban camping, sub standardized dwellings if they are better-than nothing…. Dig?
If churches trained staffers to be more “christ like” people might opt out of the real estate market. BUT the real estate market and our contributions are, for capitalists, the dues we must pay to be part of society. No bums allowed, it would screw up the housing scam. Socialize housing. The only way we can reduce rampant inefficiency caused by mortgage and rent. Renters pay the home owning sector whose home values climb artificially. It like getting money in the mail. Oh, and especially in Denver. Cool move. Be so hip and cool, people flock here, get high and pay whatever they have to to live in a cool place. SO all the cool people who have lived, worked, and toked here for years can no longer afford to live in their own home town!
Let’s not blame the pot industry. That's going nationwide and soon the pressure will be off the front-line states in the “drug” war. But the problem with jacked up home prices won’t fade so easily.
Prohibitive home prices brought half a million protestors to the streets.
