Where do the "homeless" get their RVs and tents?

[SrMachoSolo]

Is there a never ending supply of dilapidated RVs, that are capable of driving here, on some underground listing site? They'd have to be overpriced and unaffordable, if so. Or, as a friend suggested, are the cities supplying the addicts and thieves?

And the camping gear, that stuff isn't cheap. From another post, a few months ago, I was driving and saw a new encampment. I thought one of the tents was pretty nice looking, and then I recognized it as the very same one I saved for... the one I debated if I really wanted to spend that much on a tent, and if I deserved it, or would use it enough to justify the cost.

Maybe it pays more to be "homeless" and destructive drug addict.

Used to be able to find old rvs for sorta cheap through Craigslist. Impound /tow/city Auctions also a possibility; the worse condition, the cheaper; and very likely the exact same kind of people buying that loses them as for camping gear.... thrift stores seem to have no end of last few seasons tents and sleeping bags donated by people who just have had to get the latest abd greatest, or those who gave up on camping.

Edit. Here's something to think about. How many new and excellent condition RVs do you see at the local RV Parks and Campgrounds? How often do you think a certain segment of the RV owning population traded their old ones in for new ones, and what happens to the very old and worn out ones that still runs?

Isn't camping just spending money to be homeless for a weekend ?

For the full homeless experience, don't wear clean clothes, don't bring good food, bring lots of liquor, get buncha drugs, and don't go into the woods, just "camp" right on the streets!

Only did that once in Wurzburg for the Monsters of Rock concert spent my meager paycheck on a three day ticket a train ride and a few bottles of rum .

Maybe one out of ten RVs around here are livable (maybe) and all the tents are crap. No idea where they came from originally.

Pretty easy to figure out.. they usually get them from uphill because gravity.

Not sure about the RV's. Suspect many of them are sold "as is" barely running. A lot of the scum get a huge check at tax time for not working. Tents? I would be willing to bet a LOT of them are stolen. There are also some "do good" rich people who get together and donate stuff like this. Sleeping bags, tents and such. Then feeling much better they get back in their cars and drive home. To a gated community that will NEVER allow the scum to set up camp where they live.

Theft plus a never ending supply of people donating it to them. And don't forget about all the stolen boats.

Homeless = feral humans.

Science says so, it is settled.

Regime has let 1,000,000 illegals in the first year, that's about 20,000 per state. Where are they living?

Seems I don't see much "racial diversity" within the "homeless" feral human populations around here.

 

[Longwalkhome]

Think maybe the illegals are living in the homes that the homeless were forced out of?

Wouldn't surprise me for some cases. More likely a lot of them already have community resources and families already living here that would welcome them, and more likely that there are housing provided to them that aren't available to the homeless... also very likely they're "employed" with "good financial standing" and beside not being US Citizens, passed whatever checks the housing agencies are using

Who is paying for all this?

Most likely you n me indirectly through taxes, and through the increased costs. More directly.. who stands to get more money from the Feds for "diversfying" their property/ housing portfolios and for "providing employment to disadvantaged persons"?

This what they are, feral.

I have seen folks dropping off tents, bedding, and food at the local 3rd world chit hole.
It's today's new item and tomorrow's garbage that just gets left out in the street.
