Ron Book: “No one who has served our country should be forced to sleep on the streets.”
That’s a quote from Lobbyist and Chair of the Miami-Dade “Homeless Trust”, Ron Book. “No one who has served our country should be forced to sleep on the streets.”
Or how about this one from Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart; “I congratulate Miami-Dade County on this immense achievement and am proud to join them to recognize veteran homelessness reaching functional zero.”
That would be a great sentiment if they were at all close to true or if Book didn’t qualify his position with, ‘unless they are a person required to register as a sex offender.’
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) head, Ben Carson, visited Miami-Dade County last week, where Book and Diaz-Balart patted each other on the back congratulating themselves on the wonderful job they have done to totally eliminate homelessness among veterans.
Yeah right! Perhaps Dr. Carson should try visiting the encampments of homeless sex offenders, where hundreds of individuals are forced to sleep in the streets. He will find many veterans there!

They like hearing themselves talk and hearing to themselves the things they say. It makes them feel good about themselves while sweeping real problems under the rug and hoping the people don’t take notice or care to look and question them.
Just a meaningless sound bite from a hypocrite. Nothing new here just business as usual for this low-life parasite.
If he’s not kicking the underdog he’s pretending to be so civic-minded and anyone believes that bullshit coming out of Ron Book’s pie hole then I have a bridge to sell you (promise no homeless vets just a few sex offenders) in South Florida!
I’m gonna bet this Ron Book character has some pretty nasty skeletons in his closet.
This has started bothering me lately, and don’t judge me for my ignorance, about the homeless plight of ‘sex offenders’ – especially those on ‘low tier’ offenses. I have an apartment area I am thinking of renting out and I’ve decided to try to find such a person in an effort to help them out. I will speak to someone at the registry about this but I’m not sure if its as big an issue here in Oregon as it is there in Florida.

It turns my stomach to hear these ‘do-gooder’ politicians talk about how great and passionate they are especially when they think what they are saying is falling on ‘favorable ears’. Then when those ‘ears’ go away it’s back to the same old tyrannical leadership…that’s not really a good word for it…tyrannical dictatorial power exercise to fulfill their hate filled lives. The truth is they care for no one but themselves. Given necessity they would ‘throw their mothers under the bus’.
Politicians care about votes & profit. Sure, they pretend to care but don’t.
On multiple occasions I have posted about Federal Jobs for Vets who are past 7 years since terminating probation & do not have a predatory designation.
Only 1 person has even inquired about getting a Fed. Job?????
Hey John. Can I somehow contact you? I am a former Veteran, and I would Love a Federal Job! Thank You!!!

David, I posted my phone number. If You call me, I will talk with you about USA jobs & how veterans may find Federal Employment.
Thanks John! I will!
Are these fed jobs only for Vets ? Or are there any for non vet citizens ?
Veterans only
John,
I am so happy that Mr. Ron Book has found living establishments to ALL of our Veterans.
Something like that should be reported to all the South Florida News Stations down here.
(Channel 4, 6, 7, 10, 33, 39)
I will, on Monday August 13th, 2018 be calling everyone of these stations.
I am just surprised that Mr Book (and The Homeless Trust havent done this already); seeing that this homelessness and our vets. It should be “Front Page stuff….
Dont you agree?
I hope all Vets find homes, jobs & a future worthy of the sacrifices they have made to Serve & Defend
I agree that the news stations should hear about the end of homelessness, A call to the homeless trust, is interesting as well. A guideline script would help me make some calls.
