<< Obviously, you're trying to control the 40 or so formerly homeless 
 and disabled folks who need housing and want to live in Lydia House, and 
 the sole difference in this case is you KNOW they are formerly homeless 
 and disabled.  I still don't see a compelling case to control folks in 
 this way, other than you and others saying there are too many KNOWN 
 disabled folks nearby already.  Other than disability, though, how are 
 those folks different from you or me or any other renter?

Now you have stopped alleging the displacement of people. Now over and over 
your saying disabled. Dis abled, Disabl ed, Di sabled. I am disabled (got my 
parking thingr and a goofy walk). Mr. B is talking about piling more junkies 
and alcoholics into a very small space, his neighborhood. It is already full, 
more then any other space in town, with certified dysfunctional folks. Give 
it a rest, please. Why did you not address his question about letting other 
neighborhoods share in the pleasure of  sharing space with the folks you, not 
I, call disabled?

They are dysfunctional and may be dangerous and there is a tipping point.
