They're not "homeless camps," they're government-sponsored slums.

The homeless deserve real help, not help in keeping their
addictions.Parks and streets are for public use, not private living.

THANK YOU FOR 1,000 FOLLOWERS

Keep Dallas Safe (KDS) extended its appreciation this week to thank its
1,000 followers on X! Our mission to address crime and homelessness in

X! Government-Sponsored Rivers of Trash in Dallas

On April 2nd the Keep Dallas Safe team visited a vagrant camp in City
Council District 6, represented by Omar Narvaez. Placed under a bridge
where “Joe’s Creek” runs perpendicular to the road, we discovered
massive piles of garbage and people living in unhealthy conditions.



The creek has
[link removed] become
polluted with trash, clothing, bicycles, fast food wrappers, tires, car
parts, and human waste. One of the vagrants living in these conditions
even admitted to being high on illegal substances. Conditions are
worsening in Dallas as the City Council ignores real solutions to the
vagrancy crisis.

more%20officers. Over 57% of residents in Dallas say they feel unsafe in
Dallas’s public spaces. City leaders focus on supporting these slums
with public tax dollars rather than dealing with the concerns of their
constituents.



The vagrants squatting in these public spaces are mentally and
physically sick and in need of real help. Yet, our city council insists
on keeping its failed "housing first" policy in place. This policy
ignores the obvious issues and only provides a temporary roof that fuels
the problem.



The fact is, vagrants should not steal these public spaces for their
private use. It's unsafe for everyone. Keeping vagrants out of these
government-sponsored slums is going to take fundamental change from the
City. Call your local council member and ask them what they are doing to
address Dallas's out-of-control vagrancy and urban camping violations.

Local Youth Minister Fatally Shot in
Dallashttps://www.dallasnews.com/news/crime/2024/04/01/man-fatally-shot-
in-southeast-oak-cliff-dallas-police-say/

Safe streets are a civil right. Unfortunately, horrific tragedies like
this story still take place in Dallas. A youth minister working for New
Generation Church in Oak Cliff was fatally shot after an altercation.
Senseless violence has become the status quo; Dallas must choose a
better path forward!

  Poor Leadership Racks up Nearly $4 Billion in
Debthttps://dallasexpress.com/city/how-dallas-racked-up-3-7-billion-in-d
ebt/

Dallas is currently sitting at $3,700,000,000 in debt. Poor City
leadership continues to cause our city to spiral into catastrophe.
Dallas now has the highest taxpayer burden for debt compared to any
other city in Texas. This is unacceptable! Dallas businesses will leave
if city leaders don't get a hold on spending!

  High School Student Shot in Broad Daylight

As City leaders continue to blunder their way through public safety
“solutions,” residents are being shot in broad daylight at gas stations.
High crime is anti-family and anti-child. Dallas Police Department must
increase its force from 3,000 to 4,000 officers ASAP.

Tracking Illegal Camps:

Executive Director Joseph Porter broadcasts on Facebook Live each week,
documenting vagrant camps in the city and bringing you real-time updates
on the state of homelessness and the apathetic response from Dallas city
officials. This week, Joseph showed an extended video of all the garbage
found in Joe’s Creek.

 District 11 Councilwoman Jaynie Schultz

"Urban Ruins Camp"

This camp in Jaynie Schultz’s District 11 has been dubbed “Urban Ruins
Camp.” This camp is the definition of a slum. Hobbled together by all
sorts of trash under the overpass, this vagrant is living a dangerous
lifestyle so close to this road. City Council can no longer ignore this
issue; violations of the City’s urban camping ban are only getting more
brazen.

 District 10 Councilwoman Kathy Stewart

"Northern Reserve Camp"

This camp in Kathy Stewart’s District 10 has earned the title “Northern
Reserve Camp.” This vagrant is in the beginning stages of setting up a
camp here. He was napping nearby piles of reclaimed garbage. People
should not live like this, especially in the United States. Dallas must
choose a better path for its residents that gets these people real help
and off the streets!

 District 10 Councilwoman Kathy Stewart

"Hidden Paradise Camp"

We named this camp in Kathy Stewart’s in District 10, “Hidden Paradise
Camp.” This camp can be seen only for a split second if drivers are
going the speed limit on this road. The proximity to the road and a
strong potential for drug use won’t mix well and could spell disaster.
These people need a safe, centralized location for services like the
Haven for Hope model.

Statement:

Keep Dallas Safe exists to address crime and homelessness in Dallas with
the goal of transforming Dallas into the safest large city in Texas for
residents and businesses. We aim to have a City Council that prioritizes
crime rate which directly determines the quality of life in Dallas. We
do this by fighting against the "defund the police" movement, holding
accountable our city leaders' efforts towards lowering district crime
rates, and highlighting our city's homelessness problems by pushing for
enforcement of the prohibition of urban camping.
