Please be careful lumping them all together. You asked for opinions. How about some facts. As recently as 2024, 5% of the homeless were veterans and 20% of male homeless folks were veterans. There are a lot of heroes out there, cold and hungry, and they cannot do anything about it because of the train wreck in their heads. They are not lazy drug addicts.

It's all racism and not enough money for various organizations: :p marx would LOVE the "non-profit" moniker. The NRA fucked up/capitulated long ago: It's not too late to pull back the "pendulum".

That is all.

What percentage of those individuals were going to end up on the street regardless of their veteran status? There is a non-zero percentage of people that join the military because they have few other options, and they don't call it 'Uncle Sam's Misguided Children' for nothing.
