Homelessness has been criminalized in many places in this country which is already fucking ridiculous, but man.. treating a human like an animal? As has been stated in this topic, those officers need to be punished to the fullest extent of the law.


Homelessness is not a crime anywhere in the US.


Yeah, ok.

The National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty (2016) found in a survey of 187 cities that since 2011 there has been an increase in laws criminalizing homelessness. Citywide bans on camping in public have grown by 60%, bans on begging in public have grown by 25%, bans on loitering have increased by 35%, bans on sitting or lying down in particular public places have increased by 43%, and bans on sleeping in vehicles have increased by 119%. In major cities across the United States there are fewer shelter beds than needed, leaving thousands of people each night with no option but to live and sleep on the street.
