Because people hate the homeless and want to punish them, for some reason. It's the same reason we can't have comfortable public benches.

- dragonwriter 5y ago> Because people hate for the homeless and want to punish them, for some reason It's more, I think, that people hate seeing the homeless, and want to keep them away. They don't particularly care enough to hate them, they just don't want to have to encounter them.
- jonny_eh 5y agoThat's a distinction without a difference.
- dragonwriter 5y agoInsofar as the “why” of anything matters, it's not. Insofar as only the action matters, the whole question of why is moot.
- exolymph 5y agoI don't mind seeing homeless people, I simply don't wish to interact with them in any close or substantive fashion. It rarely goes well.
