Cities can't prosecute homeless for sleeping on streets: federal court rules

Now we can expect to see homeless bums crashed out in any public place. Cities won't be able to control the homeless bum situation any more. They can go where they want, do what they want, piss and **** and throw up wherever they want, and pass out where they want. There is now nothing that any city in America can do about it.

Just another case of the courts telling us that we can't even control the drunks, the druggies, and the trashy bastards who are now in every part of all of our cities. Get ready for even more. Thank you, liberal court judges.

Idiots of the Ninth Circuit. Miserable leftists.

The left ruins everything it touches.

 

I don’t like the tent cities all around Oakland where I work...
But how can we make it illegal to not have a home???

 

the Usual Suspects apparently believe taxpayers will fall all over themselves to pay a premium to live in a community/society they've utterly destroyed.

this is because the Usual Suspects are the dumbest mammals on planet earth.

 

This is simply the way that the liberal 'establishment' will force taxpayers to lay out even MORE money for homeless slackers, beggars, and bums than we already do. We will have a choice -- either put up with drunken, stinking trashed-out bums all over the place in every part of every public place, or, pay higher taxes to fund 'homeless compounds' to give them a cushy place to live with taxpayers paying for everything!

This was not done by accident. The liberal answer to the 'homeless problem' is to make it YOUR problem.... And, you're going to forced to pay for it! And all because of the dictum of one (ONE) bunch of 'almighty-god' Federal Judges who know what's good for you better than YOU do....

 

What is your solution? BTW, about 20% of the homless are vets.

 

If you were in the Third World, you couldn't and shouldn't.

But since you're in America, the richest nation on earth, you most certainly can and should. In a nation where such 'lifestyles' are entirely voluntary, it should not be tolerated.

 

You're talking about people who have almost no understanding of human nature, nor how stability and harmony are actually attained and sustained (by hard yards and 'cruelty', that's how!). These are people who don't seem to understand that real kindness isn't hugs - it's difficult, tedious, and often appears mercenary. They have a child's understanding of kindness .. not the adult's. The adult knows that limits, boundaries, and expectations are where real kindness lies.

 

What would be your solution? Locking them up at a rate of $150 a day not counting court costs? I am all for hauling them to a shelter and getting them off the streets.

 

It's good to live in Dallas.

I actually saw a homeless man here last week, the first one in about five years (maybe longer). But we don't have tents on sidewalks and we don't have to avoid human feces on the sidewalks.

 

Just haul them off the streets. Dump them outside city limits. Keep doing it til they get the message.

 

There was a story about 20 years ago where one city bought one-way bus tickets for their homeless population and sent them to another city.

It might have been Phoenix sending their homeless to Seattle, or vice versa.

 

Build tent jails and make being homeless illegal.

They of course are free to stay there as long as they like.

While it would cost some money its money well spent to get them off the streets.

 

So then the homeless will be in the suburbs.

 

Do you know how many, and btw, even homeless have legal rights, one can't just move them against their will.

 

Being homeless is illegal

 

I don't have any problem making it illegal to sleep on the street. There should be designated areas for homeless people and some sort of humane help centers set up. I know that they already exist but if we want to get people off the streets in front of businesses, we need to step up as a society.

 

I doubt one needs any new laws, when either trespassing or a curfew, or anything of that nature would sufice.

 

Past the 'burbs

 

Past the 'burbs

 

Well for one, that would be very expensive, two, I am quite sure it is illegal to take someone against their will, just to start.

 

What the hell? If I loiter in a shopping centre and am asked to move on by police, are they then obliged to find me an alternative activity? Is the guy who's pulled over for speeding entitled to a new home on the public purse? The idea that these people are entitled to compensation for COMMITTING CRIME, is hysterically absurd.

And no, it's not us who who needs to step up .. it's homeless people who need to step up. Obviously.

 

I just don't get it though.

If I were going homeless I would much rather be in jail, at least you can eat and get medical care and have a bed to sleep in.

 

So just keep moving them from the places it's illegal. Don't stop. Don't offer alternatives. Eventually they'll either die, or get the message.

 

A lot of them are chronic mentally ill people who need some help.
