LETTER: Sick of hearing about homeless

LETTER: Sick of hearing about homeless

I am getting so fed up with hearing about that homeless camp at Regina Park , and especially from ‘career activist’ Chrissy Brett. She and the other one that’s been preaching about the rights of these people and how the public should cater to them should just be ignored! They thrive on publicity, and the media gives them all they want without hearing much from the “against” side.
