| > No one is having issues with police if they aren't breaking the law yes, they are. that's why there's "animosity of the left-wingers about police." > 1. You are not allowed to setup a tent on the street. You must stay in housing provided by the government outside of the city in a cheap area. You will be given free transporation there. and what about the residents that already live in that "cheap area"? who pays for the construction of the housing - the people within the city limits or the people living in the cheaper area? > 2. If you are a repeat offender found to be sleeping on the street, then you will be arrested, and imprisoned. what if it's a family who lost their home? do you separate the children from their parents for the crime of being too poor? > 3. A mental health disorder is not an excuse. If necessary, build a jail that is a mental health treatment center. great - how long are you imprisoned if you have a mental health crisis? > What is the worst thing that happens from this policy implemented fully? abuse by law enforcement; imprisoning people who need mental health services, not to be locked up with actual criminals; the separation of families who have fallen on hard times; criminalization of poverty; short-sighted solutions which don't actually address the core issues. |
