TUCSON, Ariz. — Homelessness is an ongoing issue in Pima County and throughout Arizona. But one unhoused veteran wants to break the negative stigma often associated with homelessness.But for the past 18 months, he’s lived on the street. He says the city recently took what little he did have.
"You just wish that they would have been"Hey, you got to go,’ and remove your stuff," he said."As opposed to having some personal items that I won’t be able to get back, trashed.""Not all of us are, you know, strung out," he said when asked about one of the misconceptions surrounding homelessness.
