The city of San Diego in California is opening \u2018safe sleeping\u2019 sites for the homeless which are basically small tent cities in parking lots. This might be a bit warm in July.<\/p>\n

To their credit, the city is doing this because they recently banned camping in public spaces. The ban goes into effect in about a month.<\/p>\n

Still, to the average onlooker this has problems written all over it.<\/p>\n

FOX News<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n

San Diego opens first \u2018safe sleeping site\u2019 tents for homeless people<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first of two \u201csafe sleeping\u201d areas for the homeless in San Diego opened on Thursday as part of an effort to move people off the streets in the California city.<\/p>\n

The plan was originally announced in June that the city\u2019s Homeless Strategies and Solutions Department would expand its services to combat the ongoing homeless crisis by offering different living arrangements.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are bringing forward a comprehensive shelter strategy with detailed proposals for the short, medium and long terms that include expanded shelter, more safe parking and safe sleeping offerings,\u201d San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria said at the time.<\/p>\n

Almost one month later, a new tent campsite behind a barbed-wire fence opened at San Diego\u2019s Central Operations Yard at 20th and B streets. City officials are planning to pitch as many as 136 tents with the capacity to hold approximately 150 people in an effort to move them from downtown areas.<\/p>\n

The mayor proudly tweeted about it:<\/p>\n

We announced our intention to open our first Safe Sleeping site at 20th and B on July 1.<\/p>\n

But we aren\u2019t waiting that long. We are opening the site tomorrow.<\/p>\n

This will provide another safe place for people living in tents to go while also connecting them to services. #ForAllofUs<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/2aLwwv8wpU<\/a><\/p>\n

Not everyone is impressed.<\/p>\n

This is what “progressive” policy has done to California.https:\/\/t.co\/FX2FYWaSiH<\/a><\/p>\n

The homeless problem in certain parts of the country has been allowed to explode in recent years.<\/p>\n

Putting up more tents is just a temporary fix.<\/p>\n
