Proposed CA Law Would Grant Homeless the Right to Urinate on Sidewalks
The measure would also protect: -- Sleeping in public spaces such as sidewalks and parks -- 24/7 access to bathrooms, showers, water and clean syringes -- Car camping on city streets without restrictions -- "Life sustaining activities" such as urinating and collecting recycling trash -- Welfare cash payments -- Meditating or praying in public -- Panhandling -- Payment for possessions seized in a roust -- Right to refuse the offer of a homeless shelter -- Right to a lawyer in most encounters with the law Too lazy to get a job? Drunk? Stoned outta your mind? Come to California! The weather's fine. You can pitch a tent in the bushes or, if that's too challenging, you can sleep on the sidewalk. You can pee on the sidewalk. Hell, you can take a dump on the sidewalk. You can get an EBT card for your food and we got Medicaid if you need a doctor. If you need money for drugs you can panhandle and the cops won't hassle you for it. Posted by: Ebbang Uluque6305 2012-12-13 |
