There are already vagrancy laws on the books, they are just being ignored.

I thought the Supreme Court overturned them.

The only way this will be ended is for someone to file a class action against governmental authorities for violation of environmental laws by refusing to enforce them against the “homeless.” The primary one being violating the Clean Water Act by allowing them to crap all over the place.

“Vagrancy”?

I think those laws were done away with about 40 years ago when it became no longer against the law to be homeless.

My second boss used to tell me about growing up in St. Louis in 40s. If the beat cop found a bum sleeping in a doorway, he got a hard nightstick to the bottoms of his feet. Cities were a LOT cleaner, civil, and favorable to ordinary people back then.
