Arresting the homeless now and the future

[I_UndergroundPanther]

Today it was slipped out that the trump admin wants to hunt the homeless with ice. What will they do with the homeless they catch?

Programs they lie oh hell no they wouldn’t spend two cents on that, camps probably locked up like criminals for existing without housing regardless of reason . Or maybe taken to a farm to be rehabbed what ever that means to this fascist regime. Remember the Supreme Court made illegal to be homeless a while back. It’s faded into the memory hole for some. https://endhomelessness.org/blog/the-supreme-court-rules-on-homelessness-what-it-all-means/

No one saw the way it would be applied now.

SSI is already cut, for millions HUD will be cut soon and Medicaid cut too and the social safety net will be but few shredded strings for the troubled wealthy .

Once the supports are gone and defunded there will a LOT more desperate, suffering mentally ill, addicts and homeless on the streets.

Millions because they will not be able to go to thier addiction programs, psych rehab programs, the hospital or keep a roof over thier heads with HUD or section 8, or get treatment for mental illness that makes them stable enough often to even have a job sometimes.

Once the stability of HUD housing SSI/SSDI Medicaid and Medicare and various programs once provided are all gone or made so broke they’re pointless All hell will break loose.

People with mental illness won’t have meds anymore . Addicts won’t get support thier methadone. Anyone on housing assistance will lose housing .

There will be unthinkable numbers of people on the streets all desperate.

Think ice is awful now, they will be worse once those with empathy are weeded out.

They’ll round us up , seperate us from our animal companions or worse kill them. The people in custody will be sent out to some farm institution or camp to be worked to death .tortured,experimented on or die .

There will be so many in this situation. Made undesirables and expendable. Project 2025 says it wants the population of the United States to be 10 million.

Last time I was without a home I went psychotic 3 times in one year. Luckily I had programs to help psych meds and the hospital. And have a place of my own I am very grateful for via HUD.

Without these programs and losing stability and my home in this fascist government I know the pressures of it all very well may send me over the edge. But this time with no program to help , no meds even diabetic meds and no hospital to help ,I will be ihomeless caught by ice sent to a camp or mental warehouse or part of a concealed murder camp. I don’t know.

But I hope on a real revolt asap be it violent or non violent don’t care as long as it is effective to remove the problem people from power and prevent this horrifying future that these monsters want but could very well could be the end of me.and millions like me.


I wouldn’t wait to long if it takes violence to stop it I wouldn’t condemn it. At this point I fear we are running out of peaceful options.lets hope the military remembers thier oath to the constitution of the United States.

3. Sad but true

Our population is taught to fear and hate homeless people.

2. A couple of interesting points I heard/read from others outside of DU

1. They are merely starting with the homeless. It's an opening salvo unless you count the deported immigrants as being the true opener and the homeless becoming Act II.

2. The arrests will happen when the homeless refuse socialism forced upon them by the government. A Republican led government wants to arrest people who do not want socialism after Republicans have spent decades denouncing socialism as being almost as sinful and unpatriotic as communism.

5. I don't think this

Has anything to do with actual socialism. Socialism is when workers own the means of production.

Billionaires own it now. It is hyper capitalistic fascist merger of state with corporation everything bows before profit and everything has a price tag. If you can’t afford it you are expendable .capitalism running out of resources to exploit. Capitalism is in its death throes and the rich are trying to save it with fascism.

4. Instead of allocating funds for housing and assistance, they want to round people up and move them far away

As it was put..and then what? Put people in jail for being homeless is not the answer but they don’t care as long as they’re out of sight and sent to disappear. The assault on innocent people so far has proved nothing but they didn’t fight back..I’m not so sure about this next target in DC. Next are the Dreamers..they want them to self deport…how absolutely ridiculous..all this money, our tax money to make it hell here. Who will be next..women voters? Will he ever stop? No.

6. Those prisoners

Are capitalisms new resource to profit from. For profit prison industry is booming . The rich fuckers want to “reset” capitalism but with slaves instead of free workers who can say no to billionaires demands for more profit. Workers who want safe workplaces dignity and healthcare and can strike en masse and bring the money making machine to a halt.

The healthy young but not billionaire class bodies will be traumatized to accept slavery and right wing “values”. Women will have no rights .


This is a hateful sociopathic billionaire’s dream.

Billionaires should never be allowed to exist.
