“a spokesperson for Breaking Ground says that unhoused people are likelier to be the victims of crime rather than perpetrators.” is the latest stupid s*** used by the media to mislead the morons who comprise most of society.

You could say the same thing about (your favorite minority targets as well). …………………………………… …………………………………………………… ………………………………………… . ……………………………………………….. ………………………………………. assuming (for their sake) the statistic was absolutely true as written ………………………………… . ………………………………………………. It fails to mention that the twin of the homeless person, who has a job and a home has some .00233676 % chance of becoming a crime victim……………………… while the cited homeless person might have a .40% chance of becoming a crime victim………………………………. AND the same homeless person may only have a .36% chance of becoming a criminal and victimizing others ………………………………… ……………………………………. …………………………………… the ONLY correct and relevant comparison is that of the two twins……………………………. where to be housed and with a job is tethered to fairly low crime probability (and reduced “need” to commit crimes) ………. while to be homeless is tethered to that created-just-for-this-point detail of the .40% chance of becoming a crime victim………………………………….. …………………………. …………………………………………. the “rest” of society (you know, the part which actually makes ‘society’ function in forward fashion) …………………………. ……………………………… does not want the homeless, and the tethered extremely heightened probability that “crime” will occur near to them… IN their neighborhoods……………………………… ……………… now pull your collective heads out of your asses and see the light.
