The homeless belong in shelters. They should not be making Manhattan, our nation's largest concentration of GDP, into their personal, public restroom.


I couldn't care less what they do in 2nd rate cities.

But I mean let's think about this - what about someone walking home from a party at 2 in the morning, taking a leak in the park. Like i said, my friend got caught doing this some years ago, and had to spend the entire weekend in jail, because he got caught on a Friday and couldn't see the judge until Monday.

Don't tell me none of you have ever taken a leek outside. We're not homeless here, but it's something everyone has done at some point.

Perhaps they should let you off with a fine the first time, take you to jail for the night the second time. Idk, it just seems insane to go to jail for three days for that.

They voted for it. They LIKE urine and poop all over the sidewalks and streets.
Their Choice.

So they can get drunk and pee all over someone's doorstep, but they can't order a large soda. Lol

(Yes, I know the soda size edict was overturned by a judge, but it's the point)

With all of the misleading headlines on this forum, I am now convinced that at least 90% of thread-makers here are looking to get into journalism.
