Have you ever heard of Veterans Row? (I don't support Russia)

It's across the street from the VA in Westwood. It's also right next to a really dangerous intersection, and people will plow into their tents. There was supposed to be a campus there, so people lived their in protest/ to have access to the VA. I used to live in a cheap sublet around the corner from them during the pandemic. It was strange how bougie the area was in contrast. The "war on homelessness" turned into a war on the homeless.

My mother operates a camp for homeless veterans, so I know how bad the US sucks at taking caring of its vets.

Veterans row is back to being a sidewalk because the veterans were all moved inside the gate to tiny homes, and real housing is finally being built.
