why do homeless people care about curfews they don't have any pressing matters they need to deal with past 9pm other than scoring drugs and committing crimes. nothing good happens past 9pm
Idk, thats their business, that is the point. Also if we wanted to treat drug abuse seriously, there would be medical facilities to provide drugs legally so that they can receive proper treatment, reducing the black market sales and most likely drug related crime

I disagree that giving drug addicts a free and unlimited supply of drugs is the best way to fight drug addiction. Treatment (with forced holds) I'm a proponent of.
Well, a lot of them have shitty jobs too. Like when I worked at a grocery store, evening crew would be there until 11pm. So I guess they would just get fucked then. There are a lot of working homeless.
You can get a curfew exception if you are working.
Not at most shelters in high pop zones like mine. They fill up and won't leave a bed vacant. There's also no ins and outs, and there's usually a few people moaning or screaming. Some asshole is usually wandering around looking at everyone's stuff, and you are limited on the amount of possessions you are allowed to bring in with you (Which totally makes sense but still sucks to have to leave anything large you may have somewhere out of eyesight). It's a hellscape. I'm honestly amazed they fill up with how shitty they are to get any sleep in.
Then don't get a job that works into the night. Jobs that you work past 6 are the minority of jobs.
Uh, they're poor and probably rough hygenically, which means swing shift is their primary option. Your advice might as well be "be better!". The point is that these aren't all crackheads and crazy people. Also I don't think late jobs are as uncommon as you think they are. I personally wish they had daytime shelters to better serve what I really believe to be the most rehabitable members of the homeless population.
When I worked nights, there were always multiple people who lived out of their cars working with me.
