But only if it was fully enforced.

Yes , I believe if you make it inconvenient for homeless people to set up camp , they will move on to another city. I do support homeless situations , if they take responsibility by checking into drug free shelters.

Most of what I hear on the news is about the homeless people, not much is reported on the infringement, the stress, nuisance, violence, drug use, filth and garbage that the decent law abiding, tax paying citizens are forced to endure! They need to stop enabling bad behavior! The focus seems wrong!

Exactly! The ban would work if aggressively enforced otherwise the result will be another Hunnell Rd, Juniper Ridge, China Hat, etc, etc.. With over 1500 calls to Bend PD for Hunnell Rd, how can this be called humane? The USFS should enact the same ban against free extended camping.

A camping ban may reduce the homeless tourism numbers or their length of stay, but the remaining homeless will simply become more emboldened about violating existing restrictions.

So you have to move every 24 hours, that's not a actual camping ban! How about provide them jobs like picking up trash, farning

I do not want meth heads working. They are dangerous enough already. And the ones that aren't junkies have ample opportunities for jobs and shelter, they choose not to.

I feel that defense and offense are more rounded and work as a team
