They already have a gig with the drug dealers. Seriously. My BFF lives in town and in early CV, there was mass camping in front of her building. One day she walked out and there was a 12 man tent erected on the sidewalk. Hastings Law is nearby and they complained enough that they were finally shooed away, but she told me the cops basically said, the dealers are at the corner, but the homeless are holding everything for them so if they get stopped, they don't have anything on them and the city ties their hands when it comes to the street people. Not that there would be any consequences in the first place...
