Oregon will allow homeless individuals to pitch tents on public land......

[The Purge]

Undoubtedly turning that public land into a sewer, BUT DON'T YOU DARE PUT UP A MONUMENT TO GOD'S GOOD WORK, OR TO MEMORIALIZE OUR FALLEN WAR DEAD!!!

Oregon communities must rewrite local rules to allow Oregonians to sit, lie, sleep and keep warm and dry on public property in most circumstances.

House Bill 3115, which passed the Senate on Wednesday afternoon and is en route to Gov. Kate Brown’s desk, is a response to a 2018 landmark homelessness case that impacted most Western states with an intent to better support individuals experiencing homelessness.

While local governments should already be following rules set forth by the case known as Martin v. Boise, the bill, written at the behest of House Speaker Tina Kotek, forces cities to officially change any ordinance language still on the books to be in line with the court decision.

In its ruling, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said governments cannot criminalize conduct that is unavoidable as a result of experiencing homelessness. To punish a homeless individual for sleeping outside when there aren’t enough shelter beds would be comparable to punishing that individual for the fact that they are homeless, a consequence the court described as cruel and unusual.

I am fine with them in parks, but not in the middle of the damn sidewalk. You can have compassion and common sense at the same time.

It worked out great for Portland and LA, so more power to them!

 

[AMart]

All Democrat politicians who vote yes for this should be required, by law, to take in homeless people in their residence. Lead by example.

 

[Quasar44]

Oregon is a failed state thanks to the Bolshevik scum who control Portland and Eugene
Thank god I left to new hell hole Vegas lol

 

[bendog]

Well, Portland's not on my "to visit list." lol

edit but their state budget is rebounding and unemployment is a tad under the natl avg. So failed state .... not. Bunch a damn hippies and drifters ... you betcha LOL

 

[initforme]

All towns and cities should build tent areas. Imagine how many working folk would live in tents so ad not to have a mortgage or pay rent. Money saved means some loser landlord doesn't find renters.

Reagan closed State Hospitals in California. A fn Republican.

Lying leftist piece of shot..doesn't think anyone remembers!

The emptying of California’s state mental hospitals resulted from the passage, in 1967, of the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (named for the sponsors, two Democrats, one Republican). This bill, known as LPS, was advanced in response to pressure from mental health professionals, lawyers, patient’s rights advocates, and the ACLU. When fully implemented in 1972, LPS effectively ended involuntary civil confinement of mental patients in California.

The Democrat-controlled Legislature passed LPS with overwhelming majorities; the vote was 77-1 in the Assembly, and the margin was similar in the Senate. Gov. Reagan signed the bill, but those sound like veto-proof margins to me.

I remember asshole. My Mother and sister both worked at Camarillo State.

"When deinstitutionalization began 50 years ago, California mistakenly relied on community treatment facilities, which were never built. And the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act made it virtually impossible to compel treatment prior to extreme decompensation."

"The consequence became clear quickly. The number of mentally ill people entering the criminal justice system doubled the first year after the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act was enacted."

So, what happened after signing by Reagan? Homelessness of MI.

Hard truths about deinstitutionalization, then and now

Ronald Reagan and Jerry Brown, two of the most consequential governors ever in California, led the state during two of the most well intended but poorly executed movements in this state’s history. The first was the de-institutionalization of the mentally ill. The second resulted in fewer prison...

I noticed you didn't put any link to any proof of your claim.

If you had people would have read the following:

Yes it can be overruled on appeal to the Supreme Court but as it stands now, the state is legally bound to change their laws.

Bill to allow homeless people broad use of public spaces in Oregon dies in committee

 

[d0gbreath]

Everyone has to be somewhere. I've done considerable reading about sanatoriums and state schools. They were basically torture chambers.

 

[Quasar44]

Oregon is all just drug addicts, drug dealers, homeless bums , illegal aliens , Antifa vermin

 

[badger2]

Yes, post #8 is close to the answer. Screw the rent pimp, to whom you will willingly give your money to inhabit the space that the pimp’s structure defines, when upon leaving, you have nothing of substance to show for it lest the assurance that the structure will indeed appreciate in value.

Boise has come close: allowing people to stay in tiny homes overnight. But not close enough, Einsteins, They need to (own [italics]) that tiny home, which automatically screws the ‘elite’ American sewage slime that’s assured someone will rent their place. This is also how we screw communism.

 

[Quasar44]

I fled 4th world Oregon in 2016 and moved to 3rd world Nevada

I came from 5th world Michigan

 

[Quasar44]

Next I am moving to second world Arizona
It’s 115 in Phoenix lol

 

[badger2]

#8: So very true. You, the tenant-scapegoat, has never been able to vet these cocksuckers, and is much like passing a religious addict on the street, you don’t know what disease is in their head. Ditto for those cocksuckers who want a free ride, and parasitize the system, gayer than gay, more lesbionic than Lesbos. Screw them, too. This trash, from both ends of the spectrum, must be vetted and their pathologies exposed while simultaneously boycotting them in any way possible. This is how you can do something about mental illness and the communism that hides and operates within capitalism at the same time.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

I am fine with them in parks, but not in the middle of the damn sidewalk. You can have compassion and common sense at the same time.

Fuck that!!!
The tax payers pay for those parks and now they cant even use them?
Give em an empty lot in the ghetto to camp in where no one would notice.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

All towns and cities should build tent areas. Imagine how many working folk would live in tents so ad not to have a mortgage or pay rent. Money saved means some loser landlord doesn't find renters.

Yeah....they'd be a great place to raise your kids.

 

[badger2]

Obviously, OP is too fucked up on the lord to understand that, no doubt, god is also a noise in the street. We laud this legislation, because as Deleuze and Guattari have stated, ‘But we’ve never actually seen a schizophrenic.’ (A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia). Housing worldwide is unaffordable for millions, and home ownership is a profoundly American idea (Desmond, Evicted).
