The bill also designates specific areas for unhoused people with penalties (including death, apparently) for being found outside the zones
Sanctuary Districts are becoming real
So the Bell Riots are incoming I see. Sorry to be that trope of a Star Trek fan.
At Hexbear you will find many believers in the prophecy
the Irish Unification is comingMy main concern is that the fact that our accommodations for homeless people are worse than Sanctuary Districts may mean that we are in the Mirror Universe.
Does that mean I need to start growing a goatee, or will one be provided for me?
if you don’t have a goatee in the bad universe, then your double in the good universe does (and is probably rocking it)
Every woman isn’t a domme so it’s not the star trek mirror universe.
We’re all really really hoping for it here
Concern over 15 minute city prisons was just projection as usual.
America will literally do all that than put people into homes for free.
Getting shot for being outside The Zone.
Hexbear doing “arm the homeless” as a bit when it is desperately needed in fact right now.
it was never a bit. armed self defense is our only hope.
Armed self defence is valid but arming a group of people who have high instances of mental illness is probably going to do a lot of harm.
Help the homeless form a well regulated militia to maximize their effectiveness and minimize risk to themselves and noncombatants. Bonus: annoy right wing second amendment advocates.
Every homeless person gets 10 free kills
How can this possibly be constitutional? I don’t get how violence can be decriminalized against a section of the population

Republicans want homeless people eradicated, Democrats just don’t want to see them. This is part of why Democrats will support (watered down, means tested) solutions that involve roofs over heads and not just cops.
That’s only a portion of democrats.
The rest don’t want to see them, but they also don’t want to think about them. Out of sight, out of mind, all is good in god’s heaven. They’ll let republicans do the dirty work willingly or unwillingly, and if they get a glimpse of how the sausage is made, they’ll do a performance of “This is terrible. How could republicans do this?!”
And even the means tested democrats will inadvertently support this shit. They’ll just keep demanding more and more before they lift a finger, and when you die before meeting the criteria, they’ll just go “ah well nevertheless.”
Democrats think not voting for Biden is a vote for Trump, but the reality is that their inaction when they wield power is a vote for all things evil. Lousy fucks.
mbic, we constitutionally enshrined the right for the state to enslave people, the constitution is what people don’t revolt about.
How can this possibly be constitutional?
While I am constantly weirded out by how seriously fascists take the constitution, it is ultimately not “real” in the sense that it doesn’t define or restrict their actions.
Plus, the courts have very limited enforcement power and can often just be ignored.
And even if this is unconstitutional, and never passes, it’s a screaming out to fascists that they can and should kill. It sends marching orders to the fash even if it doesn’t hold the weight of law. Like how back in the Trump year’s Trumps more or less open support for fascist street fighting gangs emboldened them right up until the FBI turned on them.
They don’t take the constitution seriously at all; but libs have for the past ~75 years at least, so fascists have identified it as a useful weapon.
The government and its rules are like Tinkerbell; they only exist if we all believe in them. Or, to quote my boy Montesquieu: governments rule by the consent of the governed. Don’t forget that the first major native American relocation program (Andrew Jackson’s trail of tears) was ruled unconstitutional. Jackson was a real piece of work and had a fucking hate boner for everyone and everything; I mean, thank fuck the guy wasn’t around for WWII and the technology/political ideologies of the time. I’m pretty sure he came when he heard the SCOTUS ruled against him. He famously said “Justice Marshall has made his decision, now let him come enforce it”, and just went ahead with his act of genocide. The SCOTUS couldn’t really do anything besides stamp its feet and yell about it because Jackson just decided that the rules didn’t apply to him.
We’ve actually been in deeply, deeply unconstitutional territory multiple times in our history and the court either turned a blind eye to it or they were just flat out ignored. It can and will happen again.
The arguments are based around things like “property rights” and “moral hazard” and “public safety” instead of directly stating something like “You’re life is forfeit if you ever go without a home long enough to look like you’re homeless.”
Moral hazard
But porky knowingly causing a mass extinction event because ‘muh shareholder value’ ISN’T a moral hazard?
Moral Hazard isn’t some “10 Commandments” type of thing, its a rhetorical device.
A moral hazard is just when removing (or mitigating) the consequences for some risky behavior makes the behavior more common, thus potentially resulting in more harm than leaving the consequence in place would have. The stock example is insurance: if I know that in the event of my house burning down, insurance will compensate me for any losses, maybe I’m more likely to be careless with my lighter, leading to my house being more likely to burn down.
In that sense,
causing a mass extinction in the name of shareholder value sort of is a moral hazard, because most capitalists are shielded from the direct harm associated with their actions, as those harms are exported to the global south and onto non-human species first.

It’s because it’s only authorizing the use of force on criminal trespassers, which includes people illegally living on your property.
I’m honestly surprised it wasn’t already a law.
America is going to have neo-fascism long before socialism.
We are already at neo-fascism.
Just burn the country down for insurance money and start again at this point
going to have? We had a literal failed revolution by a fascist and they are running for president again and are looking to have great odds for winning…
it’s neither the first nor the most successful counterrevolution in this country’s history. I suggest reading “The Counterrevolution of 1776”.
or the Civil war, etc
yeah, reconstruction and it’s liberalization were a doozy
But at least after the Civil War we went look if you were in charge of the confederacy maybe you don’t get to hold a seat in government, so we had that going for us I suppose.
ehh they walked that back too with the end of the radical reconstruction and the institution of Jim Crow
Yeah. The campaign of terror and guerilla warfare that ended reconstruction was really dark.
There is a genocidal fascist as president right now.
We had a literal failed revolution by a fascist
why did it fail?
because the goon’s that were rallied to do it didn’t seem up to the task I suppose.
There will be probable cause against anyone who is outdoors
Those old stories about black men having to keep cash in their pocket so they could tell the cops they were walking to the story, otherwise they’d be picked up for vagrancy and jailed (and used as slave labor)
Where do I donate guns and ammunition to make it a fair fight?
“2021 analysis by the Prison Policy Initiative found that if Kentucky were a country, it would have the 7th highest incarceration rate in the world as a result of criminal policy decisions. Moreover, a study by the Vera Institute of Justice found that Kentucky’s jail and prison rates more than tripled from 1985 to 2018, because of the state’s dependence on criminalization as a means to address issues such as poverty, homelessness and addiction”
lol
This country is a cruel fucking joke and I hate living in it.
My campaign slogan would be “Arm the homeless” but I wouldn’t be campaigning I’d just be handing out weapons.
It’d be campaign in the sense that Stalingrad was a campaign.
Based and Revolution pilled
where’s the link?
