I'm not in favor of adding the bars in the first place, but just removing the bars individually is setting some homeless person up for trouble. I've seen cops hassle guys for collecting cans, when they sleep on the bench that used to have a bar those cops are going to take it on the homeless.
I'm saying advocate to change the system. Advocate to remove the bars, advocate for better shelters for the homeless than a bench.
