do not get me started we lost our only single men's shelter in the region because the no one else on the homelessness program's board of directors wanted to fight a reputation war against a pedophile priest that we would have won, but it would have cost enough political capital (basically, we'd have lost 3 donors) that we would have had to delay opening our new shelter we were building (the one on my street) by two months!
