        Why punish a person when they already have nothing. Why not try to help instead

        There is a noticeable difference between news and opinion. I follow many media outlets. How am I to judge for myself and have an informed opinion one way or the other if I limit myself to only one source?

        So you follow what you consider fake news? Right? That says a whole lot.

        Churches that lock out the homeless should have to pay taxes.

        "Prosecuting #homeless people for sleeping on the streets when there is no shelter available is a form of cruel and unusual punishment that violates the Constitution, a federal appeals court said this week." #Boise #Idaho

        "Boise’s ordinances 'criminalize the simple act of sleeping outside on public property, whether bare or w/a blanket ... a municipality cannot criminalize such behavior consistently with the 8th Amendment when no sleeping space is practically available in any shelter.'" #Homeless

        The judges wrote, "As long as there is no option of sleeping indoors, the government cannot criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors, on public property, on the false premise they had a choice in the matter." #Homeless #Boise #Idaho

        A survey of 187 cities found that from 2006 to 2016, the number of bans on camping in public increased by 69%. Bans on sleeping in public places increased by 31%.

        More on the subject...don't give beggars on the street cash...donate to charities, such as the shelters themselves...give the beggars little blessings bags with hygiene products and such...more than anything, don't confront, but be compassionate

        We got restaurants in Boston that don’t allow people with wheelchairs in them still. And then we got veteran sleeping in the subway meanwhile Republicans are burning Nikes.
