Well, you could quote the next paragraph as well:
> when the government was an active, willing, and knowing participant in creating the conditions that lead to the need for aid. This is known as the “state-created-danger” doctrine. Judge Carter invokes this as the primary justification for his sweeping order
- insert_coin 6y agoDoesn't that also apply to every problem in society?
- temp8964 6y agoYeah. This is this judge's over broadening interpretation of the law. If his logic follows, a judge can define any flaw in the society as a state created danger and the judge can create grand plans to fix any societal issues. Lol.
- dragonwriter 6y agoNo, there are extensive factual findings in the order (based on evidence presented in the hearings so far in this case) as to how the particular harms at issue in this case were deliberately and knowingly sought by the government, both the deliberate racial discrimination and the freezing of it's consequences through the deliberate “containment” strategy in skid row. Most social problems aren't the clearly demonstrable product of deliberate government choice of the harm in this way.
