So can you be clear: you believe prison is a superior solution? Because that's the solution you are proposing. I just want you to say clearly that you believe homelessness is a crime and homeless populations should be housed in prisons. Btw this was also tried before in Industrial England, this is essentially what "debtors prisons" referenced in a Christmas Carol are.
- lylejantzi3rd 2y agoSo you can be clear: have any of your "superior" solutions made the problem better or worse?
- PheonixPharts 2y agoYes, per the case itself: cities are responsible for creating public spaces that where homelessness is allow. It can be shelters or spaces where tent cities are legally allowed. The case is not arguing that homeless people should be able to sleep anywhere, it's saying that if you don't provide a legal space for them to live, then you can't remove them from public spaces. Again if you don't believe homeless should have a place to exist, then you do believe they should be in prison? Can you just clarify this is what you mean.
