I'd written a longer response to your post earlier but it seems to not have actually posted. I'll try and summarize what I had initially written.
I don't think you're a bastard at all. If anything you seem to be the only one coming down on yourself and others throughout all of the responses here. I simply think that this is a complex issue and those often don't have a simple solution. That being said, our current approach to the problem has led us to where we are today, continuing on that path won't suddenly solve it.
I don't think anyone would argue with you about not wanting an encampment in their local park but that's also not the scenario you initially described so that might be why you feel people are reacting differently than you expected.
