This ban is an affront to the homeless and will be struck down by the local judiciary in short order.

JCDecaux public toilets...

These babies are EXTREMELY expensive. I'm amazed they shelled out for one, much less 25.

[abishai]

This is just discrimination against the publicly incontinent!

Only in a place like San Francisco would this even be a subject for debate.

[ContentiousObjector]

The fact this wasn't already illegal speaks volumes about the state of San Fransisco.

Violators could be fined $50 to $500.

As George Carlin once said, "Vommiting is free!"

[TomGuy]

Ok, I have a question:

If a homeless person is on the street, and "has to go" and goes, how the he|| is he/she going to have money to pay the $50 to $500 fine? A homeless person probably has to "go" at least a few times a day. If a homeless person is walking around with an extra daily $600-700 to pay fines for peeing, etc., would they not be able to rent a home, thus no longer be homeless, thus not need to pee on the curb?

Oh, this is a liberal Board of Supervisors. Nevermind. [Slapping self for use of logic.]

I imagine that if a homeless person is fined, he or she will have to panhandle to pay the fine.

On the other hand the city could wind up with the cleanest windshields in the country.

I had heard San Francisco described as a sewer before, but I had no idea it was in a literal sense.

[Chesterton]

"(A law) demonstrates we live in a civilized society," said Supervisor Tony Hall, who wrote the proposal in January when he discovered that San Francisco had no such ban.

And the rest of America issues a rather unenthusiastic golf clap for San Francisco. Welcome to 12th century...only 9 more to go...

What? No Incentive ? - Maybe we need to issue plastic gallon jugs to these folks and pay 'em by the gallon for using the jugs.

I thought I had it rough! I (seriously) am trying to talk my husband into agreeing to sell our house and move because, among other things, our neighbour spits off his porch.

I don't know what I'd think, do or say if I went out and saw him taking a 'krap' over the railing... !...!...*LOL*

[Khurkris]

I used to live there. Left in the late '80's. Today its a completely different city. The streets reek of rancid, acidic urine. The 'homeless' are straight out of BladeRunner. Thanks WILLIE !!...you lying prick.

I'm sure that a few of Ozzy's defenders will oppose this measure...

Wait until the 9th circuit court of appeals hears this. They will overturn it so fast it will make your head spin. They will rule it is unfair to the homeless.

This is terribly insennnnnnsetive to the bums of the bay area!
