Terrible situation.
Not sure of an answer.

When a city rewards stupidity they are stuck with homeless.  Create an encampment and anyone caught loitering on the street is sent there to stay.  Create public toilets as well.

The public toilets would be full of junkies and prostitutes doing drugs and turning tricks.

I guess ***** on the street is better?  Ok then.

If the public toilets are dangerous, then people will continue to ***** on the streets.

I've used them in plenty of big cities and they were not a danger.

I can't imagine getting a "handy" in a portapotty.  Stay classy.

Not in the ghetto you haven't. Every business has a sign that says "no public restrooms"
Gas station attendants aren't payed enough to pick up dirty needles off of the floor, and unplug toilets plugged with condoms.

Wasn't talking about the ghetto at all.  These businesses listed in the link weren't in the ghetto where crap was on the street.

If homeless people are crapping in the streets then it is a ghetto. A ghetto that either doesn't have public bathrooms, or has unsafe public bathrooms.

Your definition of ghetto then is much different than what is recognized.   This is going on in business districts, etc.

Give everyone $1000 a month and you won't have this problem.

Well I don't know what constitutes a ghetto in Portsmouth, but homeless people shitting in the streets would qualify where I come from. 

I'm just saying that it's understandable that they don't provide public toilets, as no one is going to want to clean up after a bunch of homeless drug addicts.

Now you could install a bunch of Porto potties as Scarlet suggested, but you can't make people use them. They would be nasty as Hell, and if one or two got tipped over your have a much bigger mess than the on you are trying to fix.

Ghetto:
noun
a part of a city, especially a slum area, occupied by a minority group or groups.
verb
put in or restrict to an isolated or segregated area or group.



The above really doesn't apply to a business district where there is commerce and such.    You can call it want ever you wish.

And again, I don't live in Portsmouth.   Moved months ago.
