The case is considered the most significant to come before the high court in decades on homelessness, which is reaching record levels in the United States.
Born too early to enjoy fully automated luxury gay space communism, born too late to participate in affordable housing, born just in time to go to jail for conspiracy to commit suicide because living is too expensive.
Revealed: how companies made $100m clearing California homeless camps
Public spending on private sweep contractors is soaring across the state – and unhoused people allege poor treatment
This reminds of the gross, despicable private detention and private prison industry in America.
They're connected. How many times can you get detained overnight and have your entire life belongings destroyed before you fight the police officer detaining you?
Of course they would. Homeless people aren’t criminals and they can’t make being homeless a crime, per se, so they just do as much as they can to drive them towards crimes. It’ll be safer to avoid being caught if they break in and can be hidden but if they do get caught it’ll be horrendous. They’ll put them in slave camps-I’m sorry, “jails” and away we go.
It is the most heinous shit imaginable and these broken monsters get off to it.
I know this guy who goes to the New York state courthouse everyday to sleep. He doesn't even try to hide. He does it in an occupied court room during a trial, on tax-paid furniture.
I will say I'm somewhat optimistic about this case. Yes the current supreme court has a heavy partisan lean, but I've seen some decisions from the court which my pessimistic side didn't expect to go the way they did.
Where do we put them if every city, every village, every town lacks compassion and passes a law identical to this
This is why there needs to be a national effort around this, rather than this patchwork approach which often just (expensively&wastefully) moves the problem around without solving it.
So, they won't help them and won't let them be on the streets? Man, homeless folks need to learn to levitate then, so they can sleep in the air instead.
This seems like a no-brainer to me... though it probably isn't. Obviously you have a constitutional right to sleep, wherever you can make space for yourself. If these cities and downs don't want people sleeping outside, they need to provide indoor space for people who haven't actually committed crimes. We treat our criminals better than we treat our homeless.
The amount of people who down votes without watching the video is non-zero. Also, it's incredible the amount of people who don't realize or understand this comedy bit or that it's a criticism of something an actual home secretary really said.
