Their public transit and food kitchen access is more important than your wife being able to walk to the supermarket without getting hollered at.

I'm happy you feel that way, let them pollute the sidewalk of your neighborhood instead.
We're talking about human beings who are neglected by civic institutions and are often mentally ill, using affordable transportation to access food they need to survive. Yeah, great way to show that people who oppose these aren't heartless.
There has to be a better way to help the mentally ill, than simply giving them cheaper transportation.

I feel that is just a bandaid to the gaping wound of a problem.
