In San Francisco, the homeless aren’t just boarding in hotels for free — they’re getting free booze to boot.
That was the message from the city’s public health department in recent days after a social media user who describes himself as a “formerly homeless addict” posted a Twitter comment criticizing the practice.
“I just found out that homeless placed in hotels in SF are being delivered Alcohol, Weed and Methadone because they identified as an addict/alcoholic for FREE,” the user “T Wolf” wrote on Friday. “You’re supposed to be offering treatment. This is enabling and is wrong on many levels.”
Clearly, T Wolf isn’t as enlightened as the sages of the San Francisco Department of Public Health.
