✆ “The question is, are the homeless, or as I call them, the vagrants, in Santa Monica, particularly the Third Street Promenade, are they registered or do they have Social Security numbers? Because when I look at what will happen in the next 10 years, you’re going to have a lot more than 8,000 or 10,000 by that time. I think they should be registered and put a cap on whoever is here right now.”
