Government is so stupid and so death-dealing. “Yeah, the ceilings are too low - better to leave them outside to freeze to death.”

So if you want to just go do something kind for people who desperately need it, you lose your home.
I’ve just had a wonderful kindness done for me for which I am eternally thankful, because my situation is in dangerous decline, so I appreciate people who do such things for others. When I was flush, I used to do the same for others.
It galls me beyond words that these people’s home is being threatened over some stupid code, when people’s lives are at stake. Yeah, let them die, frozen to the pavement. Your precious code will be preserved.
In a sane world, this would be ‘wink and a nod’ stuff. If people are going to end up as lifeless corpses frozen to the pavement, then screw the dang code.
One of the more amazing parts of this article is that Chicago actually has regulations pertaining to children’s slumber parties.
The bureaucratic rationale is that rooming houses are illegal. Maybe if rooming houses weren’t illegal these people wouldn’t be homeless.

No good deed goes unpunished.
Is there anything Chicogo does not have a law governing?
This is Tyranny defined.
They can only stay if they are illegals seeking sanctuary.
If they were deported 5 times even better.
Otherwise there are laws in the US?
Oh,that’s right only if you are a non-government employee.
If he’s not charging them anything how can it be called a “rooming house?”
Why wouldn’t you want your basement filled with drug addicts shooting up, peeing and pooping?
