We are a free nation ... if someone wants to sleep on the streets in our country they are free to do so. As long as they are citizens and subject to our same laws. Leave them be.
There have been vagrancy laws, here, since before we were a nation!
Just where, exactly, in our Constitution, does it state that as free people, in a free country, people can sleep on the streets, poop and urinate on sidewalks and in the streets?
Just WHY should the scum be "left alone"?
There are shelters; they could sleep there for nothing.
As a "free nation", do you truly believe that everyone should be allowed to do whatever they feel like doing? And if so, then we shouldn't have any laws at all...right?
And who says that these are all citizens ?
Agree with nopardons on this one.
The homeless take for granted the
good nature of the human soul.
It’s basically the “easy way out”
of a life long commitment to
bettering ones self.
Wow...are you the one stepping over bums all over the place, having them spit on you, watching them bay at the sky and scream endlessly, looking out for their poops and needles, smelling the urine on every sidewalk and building, watching them accost women and children?
You are living in a dreamworld.
Civic life in the US is in the toilet. Cities used to be hospitable places where you could raise a family and know your kids were safe. Rampant permissiveness and an “anything goes, leave them alone” culture has totally ruined city life all over the country. The 1% crazies and bums make life miserable for the 99%. Where is the fairness and “justice” in that?
Yall can shoot me but i agree with antichoke and the judge on this one. We need not to get high and mighty over here like the leftist elites. If we want to hold power we better understand the plight of all Gods children. If a guy sleeping in public is not hurting anyone leave him alone. I work two jobs and have have nearly been homeless. Not all homeless are bums and drug addicts. There but for the grace of God go we.
