Wakes up one day with 20 tents full of junkies shiting on the sidewalk in front of his business and effectively bankrupts him and his family.

Exactly. Here's my idea. Instead of sending all this money overseas to Ukraine and the Middle East, instead use it to fix up vacant and abandoned houses in cities all across America, and offer them as places to live for homeless individuals and families, and also some as group homes for those with developmental and/or physical disabilities. Not only are you helping the homeless population, you're also creating jobs and improving neighborhoods.

@@kjpcgaming9296 There are a lot of things that a person might have to pay for when homeless, especially if they are a low-wage worker. Car insurance, medicine, doctors visits, gasoline, childcare needs, food, temporary shelter, a gym membership (if they want to be able to shower), or even towards a debt they owe. Also, apartments usually require a deposit in order for someone to apply to housing. If someone has an eviction history due to being unable to meet ends (which is common for a lot of homeless people), then they might not be able to even access an apartment to begin with.
Sure they are, but public spaces are public spaces for all people, not just those who are homeless. The problem isn't going to solve itself, though, and we need to find ways to make housing affordable. In the meanwhile, make camping areas available.

We live in an evil fallen world. Billions for war but none for the homeless or housing just disgusting and disappointing. My prayers are with the homeless 🙏 😞 😢 💜
This one is disturbing. We are breaking the social contract. Leave us alone and we will leave you alone. Now the homeless will be pushed to push back. Good luck to the police, who will eventually have to enforce these laws and increase interactions. Then you can flood the judicial system with repeat cases. For these people, they cannot even exist without breaking the law. They are breaking the social contract, expect some terrible interactions.
What I heard here is "communities" have the power to decide how to handle homeless people. Assuming that "communities" will actually provide some place(s) where they can move people to, and maybe some type of help to get them back on their feet (if they're able-bodied) or healthcare (if they're not), and not just criminalize them for being homeless and hanging where they are not wanted, then this may me a fair ruling. But the court seems to have left off any guidance, which mean some communities will not be fair in dealing with homelessness, and you can expect this will be in the courts again sooner, rather than later.
@@taanwallbanks9841 Communities did NOT have a clear mandate prior to this ruling. By communities, we mean the city government, not the people on the street. In New York, for example, police have come under scrutiny for attempts to move homeless out of the subway system; the MTA came under fire for removing benches that homeless used to sleep on with the specific intent of making it more difficult for them to sleep in the subway. So, the communities did not always have that power before SCOTUS’ current ruling that they do. Now we'll need to keep watch and see what cities across America who have issues with homelessness does with that.
@@Pulse992 sorry if I'm misinterpreting but that's what I said. Communities have always had the power to provide places for homeless people to be, just the denying and criminalisation is new
@@taanwallbanks9841 You’re even misinterpreting what YOU’VE said, which was, “Communities already had the power to do everything you just said….” In your modified statement you’ve added, “…communities have always had the power to provide places for homeless people…”. What good is being able to provide places if you can’t force them to go there? Going further with the New York example, even when the city had places, shelters, for people to go, people would often refuse to go there, preferring the subway, the park’s, or the streets, and the city had been restricted from forcing them to go. So the new ruling does break new ground. My observation is that the ruling leaves a lot of room for implementation of unfair practices, which inevitably will form the basis for future court challenges. And homeless people, who have nothing and no way to defend themselves (except violence) will end up suffering the consequences till then.
@@Pulse992 the point is if there's adequate housing you wouldn't need to force them to go there. And this case wasn't about that. It was about if you could punish people for sleeping rough even when there isn't adequate shelter. That's the only thing this ruling changed.
law: if you dont have the money to afford something,youre an outcast of capitalist society.Unless there are people who care about others more than money and profit.
Maybe they should stop coming to tiny southwest oregon towns hoping to get their drugs or if they're not on drugs food and housing. We don't have any housing. BTW min wage here in Grants pass is 20 dollars an hour. TWENTY that is WELL MORE than enough to rent an apartment in grants pass and pay bills and buy a car and and and. I'm sorry they chose to come to a small town. We have 150 homeless shelter beds in our town they are all empty.

During my corporate years I started a bona fide 501(c)3 with 20 thousand of my own dollars to help the local schools. The joy I get in giving far outweighs my loss of revenue. Even last week, I drove up to a homeless encampment, started walking towards the blue-tarped shelters, as the mostly black men came out to see who was coming. I shouted out to them "Hey! What's that white lady doing here!?" They laughed. Then I went up to each one of them and handed them a $20 bill. That's the most fun anyone could have. Of course it wasn't enough. But maybe it will get them through one more day. Sure, people will say "They will just buy drugs with it!" Hey. It's none of our damn business what they do with it. It is our job to GIVE without stipulations.
Our we could try honoring the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and other Enlightenment principles. What is homelessness but a political condition? This is being done on purpose.
Excuse me? You think they don't want to participate in a capitalist system is why they're homeless? Wow. But they expect people who do pay taxes - only homeowners, business owners - these are the people that pay these kinds of taxes - they expect tax payers to foot this bill for their life. I think you're mistaken. I think the homeless are made up of a mix of drug addicts, people who lost their homes because of the pandemic, people who refuse to accept help, and people that just want to be left alone (this last group is the group I think you're referring to)
The Nazis passed the Law against Dangerous Habitual Criminals on November 24, 1933, which allowed them to imprison or send homeless people, beggars, alcoholics, and the unemployed to concentration camps. The Nazis also used the term "anti-social element" to justify mass arrests of social outsiders, including the homeless, as part of everyday police practice.
Well since the surpreme court thought it was a-ok to breach the Capitol on January 6th, i would advise them to breach their court rooms and sleep there! Don't worry SCOTUS, just a bunch of tourists trying to find a place to sleep....

There has to be something to do rather than arrest them. If their doing drugs, arrest them and have them get help. If they can afford a place, then they need to create more low income home for these people. Most of these people are military retirement.

Prayers for #HousingFirst because that is all that works for people who are in poverty. Min wage is too low and benefits are too low for poor people to afford housing. Allowing folks to sleep in the streets, where they are targeted by criminals and drug users, is not the answer either. At least this is a definitive answer.
We have a lot of empty jail cells now since drugs have been decriminalized and in some cases legalized. Logical step? Lock them up in prison. 🤣 Gota keep those cells full, especially in the private prisons/jails, otherwise they lose revenue from taxpayers.

@@MrMcgooOG How about your family getting kicked out of their home for working full time jobs and still not being paid enough to make rent and food? They move in with you? Sounds like a great time right?
They should always have a shelter available for everyone if they do then there shouldn't be homelessness on the streets. If no shelter is available then they should allow them to camp in a city park where there is bathrooms and safety
For homeless people who are on drugs and doing illegal acts they will probably not want to be in a park where there's safety cameras with police watching so that's why it should be criminalized if they're homeless anywhere else but I can see that if city parks are allowing and having cameras and safety things going on then that should be okay as long as they're not you know blocking people in the city and on sidewalks and not allowing you know everyday City things going on..

So if their family and friends are homeless, are they going to allow them being done wrong. What a bunch of bs. Homeless people are people too.
Then you take them in!
Sure they are, but public spaces are public spaces for all people, not just those who are homeless. The problem isn't going to solve itself, though, and we need to find ways to make housing affordable. In the meanwhile, make camping areas available.
That does not give them the right to turn parks into shanty towns full of garbage. This whole thing got completely out of control.

When has the Supreme Court shown prudence, wisdom, decency or, indeed, anything-admirable-about-anything
in recent memory ?
Just now, protecting public places where children are . Proud of the Supreme court! Allowing drug addicted mentally unstable people to loiter on public land is nothing but inviting trouble & everybody knows it. They should be forced to get help! Period!
The Abuse has to stop 🛑!!! Greed Flation is at the State level, there is NO low income house made a doble for the Low income or retirees on a fixed income!!!! It is crucial that the Governors of ALL STATES be made accountable to resolve this situation ASAP!!!!
Wow even the supreme court doesn't like the homeless now I don't know what to do after my hotel stay in 14 days what a nightmare i don't have enough disability money to live on tjhis is ridiculous!
the most expensive housing is a jail cell
the expense of arresting the homeless is unsustainable , and that solution will fail too
And the ruling will be abused before sundown today
How ma y people are one paycheck away from being homeless
Im Less than one paycheck away. My rent got so high and I've been here a couple of years that I have to figure out if I eat food or pay rent😮 I'm very upset about this ruling. How many other Americans are in my shoes now??? I'm not a drug addict or do I drink
honestly, most people don't understand that they are closer to being homeless than they are to being a millionaire or actually financially secured.
There has to be a middle ground between making homelessness illegal and letting drunks/drug addicts nod out wherever they choose.
There is. It’s called treatment. Moreover why does it bother you? I don’t care if a homeless guy is passed out, 99.9% of the time its in a corner or somewhere out of the publics walking path.

While the homeless can be removed, they should receive shelter and definitely should NOT be criminalized in any way.

This one is disturbing. We are breaking the social contract. Leave us alone and we will leave you alone.
Now the homeless will be pushed to push back. Good luck to the police, who will eventually have to enforce these laws and increase interactions. Then you can flood the judicial system with repeat cases.
For these people, they cannot even exist without breaking the law. They are breaking the social contract, expect some terrible interactions.

@@beanbon666 The world goes on. No ruling is final.
Being homeless isn't a right just because they want it to be.
@@shaynemhopkins Simply existing is a right.
These are our elected leaders smfh
What I heard here is "communities" have the power to decide how to handle homeless people. Assuming that "communities" will actually provide some place(s) where they can move people to, and maybe some type of help to get them back on their feet (if they're able-bodied) or healthcare (if they're not), and not just criminalize them for being homeless and hanging where they are not wanted, then this may me a fair ruling. But the court seems to have left off any guidance, which mean some communities will not be fair in dealing with homelessness, and you can expect this will be in the courts again sooner, rather than later.
Communities already had the power to do everything you just said except for the criminalisation though. This ruling is just adding that power.
@@taanwallbanks9841 Communities did NOT have a clear mandate prior to this ruling. By communities, we mean the city government, not the people on the street. In New York, for example, police have come under scrutiny for attempts to move homeless out of the subway system; the MTA came under fire for removing benches that homeless used to sleep on with the specific intent of making it more difficult for them to sleep in the subway. So, the communities did not always have that power before SCOTUS’ current ruling that they do. Now we'll need to keep watch and see what cities across America who have issues with homelessness does with that.
@@Pulse992 sorry if I'm misinterpreting but that's what I said. Communities have always had the power to provide places for homeless people to be, just the denying and criminalisation is new
@@taanwallbanks9841 You’re even misinterpreting what YOU’VE said, which was, “Communities already had the power to do everything you just said….” In your modified statement you’ve added, “…communities have always had the power to provide places for homeless people…”. What good is being able to provide places if you can’t force them to go there?
Going further with the New York example, even when the city had places, shelters, for people to go, people would often refuse to go there, preferring the subway, the park’s, or the streets, and the city had been restricted from forcing them to go. So the new ruling does break new ground. My observation is that the ruling leaves a lot of room for implementation of unfair practices, which inevitably will form the basis for future court challenges. And homeless people, who have nothing and no way to defend themselves (except violence) will end up suffering the consequences till then.
@@Pulse992 the point is if there's adequate housing you wouldn't need to force them to go there. And this case wasn't about that. It was about if you could punish people for sleeping rough even when there isn't adequate shelter. That's the only thing this ruling changed.

“The Preamble states that an overriding purpose of the U.S. Constitution is to “promote the general welfare,” indicating that issues such as poverty, housing, food and other economic and social welfare issues” meaning the above are issues the Government is committed to solving.

The joy I get in giving far outweighs my loss of revenue.
Even last week, I drove up to a homeless encampment, started walking towards the blue-tarped shelters, as the mostly black men came out to see who was coming.
I shouted out to them "Hey! What's that white lady doing here!?" They laughed.
Then I went up to each one of them and handed them a $20 bill.
That's the most fun anyone could have. Of course it wasn't enough. But maybe it will get them through one more day.

punishing people for not Participating in the broken capitalist system is crazy to me tbh
Excuse me? You think they don't want to participate in a capitalist system is why they're homeless? Wow. But they expect people who do pay taxes - only homeowners, business owners - these are the people that pay these kinds of taxes - they expect tax payers to foot this bill for their life. I think you're mistaken. I think the homeless are made up of a mix of drug addicts, people who lost their homes because of the pandemic, people who refuse to accept help, and people that just want to be left alone (this last group is the group I think you're referring to)
The Nazis passed the Law against Dangerous Habitual Criminals on November 24, 1933, which allowed them to imprison or send homeless people, beggars, alcoholics, and the unemployed to concentration camps. The Nazis also used the term "anti-social element" to justify mass arrests of social outsiders, including the homeless, as part of everyday police practice.
Well since the surpreme court thought it was a-ok to breach the Capitol on January 6th, i would advise them to breach their court rooms and sleep there!
Don't worry SCOTUS, just a bunch of tourists trying to find a place to sleep....
It's up to the community to punish you for merely existing

Way to go Supreme Court nothing like going after people who can't defend themselves!! No wonder trust and respect for the court is at its lowest!
There has to be something to do rather than arrest them. If their doing drugs, arrest them and have them get help. If they can afford a place, then they need to create more low income home for these people. Most of these people are military retirement.

They should always have a shelter available for everyone if they do then there shouldn't be homelessness on the streets. If no shelter is available then they should allow them to camp in a city park where there is bathrooms and safety
For homeless people who are on drugs and doing illegal acts they will probably not want to be in a park where there's safety cameras with police watching so that's why it should be criminalized if they're homeless anywhere else but I can see that if city parks are allowing and having cameras and safety things going on then that should be okay as long as they're not you know blocking people in the city and on sidewalks and not allowing you know everyday City things going on..
