[QUOTE="osu007, post: 3728911, member: 41143"] After reading some of the post, also consider this. There have been productive citizens that have been thrust into “homeless” status. Not all want to be there, and some do work themselves out. However, I have also seen some productive citizens that have been there that do not climb out, and give up. They then take on the ways of the general “ideas” of the homeless. Mental issues, lack of self care/discipline, and change of personality. These once productive people seem to change almost overnight. Resorting to begging, stealing, drug and alcohol abuse, and truly develop mental issues. As in regard to the mass migration of homeless to Tulsa, several years ago, several homeless individuals stated that they were from Colorado, and had been given one way bus tickets to Tulsa, and told that they would be taken care of in Tulsa. This was done by the city of Denver and Colorado Springs, according to several homeless individuals. I personally heard them. And yes the Tulsa problem has expanded to Broken Arrow. [/QUOTE]
