Since 2006, Florida Department of Corrections officials have forced convicted sex offenders to live under the Julia Tuttle upon their release from prison. At last count, 140 of the social exiles have lived on what might be post-recession Miami's only high-demand waterfront property. In recent weeks, City of Miami "homeless housing specialists" have ordered Allen and Daniel to move -- and if they don't beat it, their makeshift homes will be confiscated and the men could face arrest for trespassing.

The reason: They couldn't produce evidence that they were molesters. "I tried to tell him I was a sex offender," Daniel says of the official who gave him the warning. "He said, 'Who's your ?' Shit."

1. Unrecommending it will not make it go away.

It's still stupid to force people to live under a fucking freeway and then throw homeless people out because they can't prove they are child molesters!

It's all insanely stupid.

3. well, there is that too.

They share a common lack of humanity and basic human decency. If I thought it would do any good I would despair.
