I've heard this claim repeated ad nauseam. It's become one of those things that people hear and then repeat without giving any thought as to whether or not there is any evidence to back it up. If it's not already obvious, I question whether or not there is any evidence to back up this claim.
1. some people absolutely want to be homeless

2. WELL over 50% of the homeless here are from out of the city

3. if you really gave any effort to interact with those who are dealing with this, 1&2 would be obvious to you. talk to an EMT/firefighter with APD/nurse etc. talk to people who work at a shelter. if you want to take the risk, talk to the homeless themselves.
