    Sorry but he’s right on this one. A home isn’t just like a house. A mobile home is still a home. If the structure keeps you safe from the elements, contains some of your possessions, and is the place where you sleep usually, then that’s absolutely a home

      Yet conservatives salivate at the thought of literally destroying similar domiciles that happen to form an “encampment”. What’s the difference? Why does this guy deserve the dignity of being allowed to own things, while people living in encampments get their shit tossed in and are forced to move location constantly?

      RVs aren’t meant to be year-round dwellings. Especially not the kind you call a camper attached to a truck.

        Yeah well you aren’t meant to be working 60 hours a week to not be able to afford a 1bdr apartment but here we are.

        Sure, but imo it still qualifies as enough to mean you’re not homeless. There are other terms that might apply though, like shelter insecure or something. If you have a safe place where you can sleep in, and come and go as you please, and that you legally have the rights to possess, then you aren’t homeless
