In 410 A.D., a fella named Alaric led a horde of a quarter-million homeless Visigoths, and escaped Roman slaves on Rome. What they wanted was land to replace the land that the Romans had driven them off of. Rome, at that time, was precariously short of troops, since the Legions were away quelling countless rebellions. The only troops available to defend the Imperial City were the 20,000-man Praetorian Guard, which just happened to have a lot of Visigoths serving in its ranks The Roman Senate sent some dignitaries, to parley with Alaric.To whom, they basically asked "Supposing we give you land? What are you going to give us?" Alaric responded "YOUR LIVES!" (those 'barbarian' war chiefs were famous for their two-word replies). The Roman dignitaries ran back to the safety of their fortified citadel. And, shortly after midnight, the Visigoths in the Praetorian Guard opened up the gates of the Imperial City. Into which, poured scores of thousands of enraged Visigoths, who did scourge, and sack the place. Anyhow, I like to ponder what the politicians of our 'Imperial City' might do, if a million armed homeless were to pay it a visit!

Trump probably saw his first homeless person two years ago. Keep in mind he has led a very sheltered life. I use the term "property-less", since their big "crime" seems to be their lack of liquidate-able property. And they existed as far back as Colonial times, and the Early Republic. Washington D.C. had a "homeless problem" back when it was still a small village. During the War of 1812, it was Washington's property-less who were responsible for setting most of the fires that were blamed on the British Army, when they captured the place in 1814. The fires broke out as the property-less looted homes and shops. As the town grew into a city, property-less folks even took up residence in alley-ways, and became known as the "alley people of Washington" (who were photographed by a French photographer, back in the early days of photography).Why was Washington a popular place to go? Because, since the District of Columbia was Federal property, many property-less persons believed that meant they couldn't be evicted for trespassing! So long as some people have too much property, and some people have none, there will be the property-less. The are our 'Sans Domiciles' ("people without homes" ). And the propertied both fear, and loathe them.

The only filth I see is "him" !
