There was this big debate about homelessness when Giuliani was Mayor of NYC. Businesses were complaining left and right when the homeless were sleeping and living right in front of their stores. I use to see this all the time on Lexington Ave in the 70's. What did Giuliani do? He had the homeless picked up and sent to shelters. Problem was they did not want to go to shelters, outside of getting a free meal, but wanted to live on the Street. A big hoopla resulted with rights of the homeless championed by some. I think they won out, or as you stated, the laws weren't enforced. Some businesses suffered, for many did not want to walk over the homeless or be subjected to the smell and filth of most of the homeless not taking showers. The homeless demonstrated that they had the right to sleep on the streets and not in a shelter. Of course, during frigid winter nights, they preferred shelters. But otherwise they preferred the Streets and Parks. I felt sorry for the businesses that lost business due to the homeless. If I was one of those businesses, I'd be super pissed and relocate. Some couldn't do that because they signed a long term lease and took matters in their own hands.

> I already proved to you that cities are not enforcing the laws that homeless people break on a daily basis. So what? Cities aren't enforcing any laws rich white collar people break Nobody buys a Mangusta to obey the law and those speeding assholes KILL and MAIM people regularly. See... I'm ACTUALLY a tough on crime guy. I think you break a law you should go go jail or do community service... no fines. Writing a check is not a punishment. And if you're doing 20mph over the speed limit. Confiscate the car and sell it. Keep the money for repairing roads not racetracks.
