Let me tell you something. We did this here in the Lubbock shelter, and no one had a problem with it. They screened everyone as they came through, and weeded out anyone who had outstanding records. They also drug and bomb dog sniffed their bags for drugs, bombs, guns, and what not. Then they went into a pat down. Then went in to be checked for criminal history. They were taking out child molesters or anyone with a violent history.
Of the people they pulled out, were 2 rapests. Thats it. Everyone else had a clean rap sheet. In order to get housing in this area, they had to go through ANOTHER criminal background check. We made damn sure that we had good people here...
