    So how are they going to pay $500 fine?! The fine makes no sense. Maybe they should set up a camp ground for the homeless to camp.

      Or better yet, make it a law that homes must be provided for all Americans, and pay for it with the trillions of tax breaks given to corporations, it’s not that hard of a problem to solve, if we got corporations to quit running the government.

    Like people are going to suddenly rent an apartment to avoid tickets. Low income housing as an option before tickets. If you have apartments available and then people don't go, then you can ticket people.

    That is silly. Homeless people don't even have a dollar to their names, how does police expect them to pay $500 illegal camping fee? That's not realistic.

    27,229 × 500?. Just $500 will make a homeless person permanently homeless. So will the fines be used for shelters or a paid election campaign ad?

    I think even if the councils gave them legal camping grounds with amenities and a rubbish disposal that would be a better way than fining them.....

      On private property, certainly. But this is public property which means it belongs to tax payers like me and I say they can camp out.

      @@qualityserviceexperts9996 I think public property like a park or parking lot does not mean someone can set up a shelter with random garbage a "they find" along with pets. Not to mention there is no sewer set up for proper waste disposal.
      There are a lot of homeless shelters available, but most people don't want to stop using street drugs or take their psych medication. Because at least 90% of the people who are homeless have both substance abuse and mental disorders, which only get worst with living in the streets and using street drugs (meth and opiates)

      I don't think they should just litter and make the place look like crap but I think they shouldn't be fined either the only other options would be free housing jail or kicked out of the state.
