And what else will I complain about when I go downtown? I want to be able to complain about how we need to clean the riffraff of the streets, but it gives me no joy if we're actually getting them off the streets! I need something to fucking whinge about!

Most people who complain about downtowns never go there anyways.

Exactly. I fucking live downtown and I have more to complain about businesses that operate down here than the damn homeless.

The only "thugs" I ever see downtown is the posse of ten cops it takes to shoo one homeless person out of a park.

I also live downtown, and my primary issues are homeless stealing things off our front porch, the neighbors that think every night is a good fireworks night, and the 2 homes that previously had 6 scruffy lookin guys hanging out in front of them for months that are now in cinders.

Well if the homeless are off the streets, then the turtles and rats can come back out of the sewers. Go rant at Splinter
