Tampa Bay 10 has a video of the St Petersburg City Council passing ordinances against the homeless. The ACLU and public defender's office attempted to stop the ordinances.
Update: St Petersburg shut down the original tent city at St Vincent De Paul. This forced homeless people to move out of the fenced property and onto the streets. Businesses and residents complained. City Council reacted by creating ordinances that would forbid outdoor camping.
Guess where the homeless are now going to? If you guessed St Vincent De Paul then you are correct.
Well thats a fine thing, when do cities start centers of collection for elimination of the poor,disabled, and the mentally ill. As we all know they are somehow unfit and unproductive, as must be disposed of. Having spent some time at the bottom I know how it is, but tormenting people is what we do now, it has a long tradition in modern media, the weak are nothing but entertainment, heck even veteran's are fair game.
ReplyDeleteWhat ever happened the to "culture of life" that Florida's Republicans and Christians are always touting? I guess it only applies to the UNBOORN, not the BORN
