      The kind that makes you have incredibly violent responses when you are triggered. For some something simple like a motorcycle backfiring puts them right back into their war(s). That can get violent under the wrong circumstances.

        So like the kind of thing you’re way more likely to encounter on the streets, and way less likely to be able to safely regulate without somewhere safe and private to go?

            Sure, but risk mitigation is still a thing. You really think more people suffering PTSD flashbacks, especially to the point of aggression, are going to be better off in the streets than their own home?

          Because most of these people live with other people whom they normally do not want to hurt.

            Homeless people… “live with” other people… Something doesn’t add up, here.

            Unless you’re counting the people walking by on the street as “housemates”.

              These people who choose to be unhoused frequently have people and places they can live and choose not to be there. Perhaps I was unclear on that point. They are unhoused people but they do not have to be.

                Then the houses they should be freely given shouldn’t have those people also living there.
