Even more disturbing is all the shitheads (both liberals and conservatives) in this state who cheer it on and the local media who whip people into a frenzy every time a cop gets sneezed on
mass removing homeless people (e.g. human beings) and calling it "operation clean sweep" (the obvious implication being said human beings are trash) is genocidal rhetoric and its disturbing no one in Boston govt or media feels the need to point this out.
