In liberal lingo getting the homeless off the streets and into shelters is "mean-spirited." By their twisted logic, I guess letting them prey on each other, sleep in their own vomit and filth, and go hungry is "good natured."

Jim Norton was absolutely right when he remarked about the irrelevance of the ACLU. An organization that once led the way in the civil rights movement is now reduced to defending terrorists, kid-touchers, and vagrants.

Sure. They are trying to make a statement about the evils of capitalism, and unless they have hordes of shambling, drunken victims to point to, it's harder to make that case - and harder to get their friends on the city payroll as "homeless advocates". Leftists LIKE homeless people, and want to make sure they are as visible and irritating as possible. It's one of their most reliable ways of sucking money out of a city's coffers.

Good for Las Vegas for not falling for this San Francisco-style leftist scam.
