No, illegal to squat on a sidewalk and shit up the place for everyone else. Most homeless people don't camp on the sidewalk, they live in a car or crash on their friends couches or actually utilize the shelter services. No one has a problem with these people. People have a problem with the visibly homeless that are disgusting junkies and camp in public areas.

redditors try to be dishonest and pretend the homeless on the street are the same ones you're talking about. The ones people want to get rid of are the fricking cracked out schizos living on the street doing smack in the middle of the day and screaming at invisible people.

I'll have you know some of those "cracked out schizos" are entrepeneurs and bring a lot of innovation to the local economy. There's a camp at the park I frequent that provides me with discount parts for my bike.

To be fair, I'd actually be okay with side walk camping if the rules were such that you can't setup until after sun down and you have to pack up and be gone by sunrise, anything left on the sidewalk gets trashed.

Sure, and for anyone who agrees, only the sidewalk near their property becomes the designated camping zone.

The problem isn't sleeping on the sidewalk, the problem is the establishment of semi-permanent encampments and all the filth, noise and crime that it brings. There are already respectful people that sleep on the sidewalk and clean up after themselves, you've probably just never noticed them.

Ok, but if we get rid of them, no one will be scaring away invisible thieves. Didn't think of that, didja, Mr. Smart Guy?

If I was president I would make living in a van totally legal. Not like a shitty little car but I would tell auto manufacturers out loud to start making cool vans.

Gotta bring back the cassette player, I still have a few sweet Aerosmith mixes from back in the day. Also, I'm gonna order it with the factory Airbrushed Wizard Paint job. We can meet up after your shift and smoke some doobies behind the Kmart
