Boxcar Willy User ID: 162186 Canada 03/25/2008 01:08 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hundreds of Homeless Evicted [ link to www.foxnews.com] Hundreds of Homeless Evicted From SoCal Tent City ONTARIO, Calif. — Police and city workers are cleaning up a homeless encampment that grew too big to manage. The tent city near Ontario International Airport can hold about 150 homeless but in recent months has outgrown the size of property, making sanitation and safety major hazards. People from outside of Ontario are being evicted. Those who can prove they are from the city will be able to move back after the land is graded and a gate and portable toilets are installed. In the meantime, occupants of the encampment are staying in a nearby vacant city lot. Many outsiders are also camped out now in that lot. A small group of protesters in the original tent city say they won't leave but police spokesman Jeff Higby says they will wait them out. ************************************************************ |

"Those who can prove they are from the city will be able to move back after the land is graded and a gate and portable toilets are installed." ---------------------- So just how are these people going to Prove they are from the city? hum... So along with that gate, will there also be a fence installed? Then after that, will there be guard posts too? Is this going to be the start of FEMA camps? |
