Its ridiculous that supposed advocates endorse having people live in sidewalks as a compassionate policy.

I think you are missing the point. No one wants the homeless to live on the sidewalks, but there isn't a better place for them to go right now. Given that, any proposal removing them from the sidewalks is only going to make their lives more difficult unless it also provides for a alternative, which this bill doesn't do.
