Someone let "Camping with Steve" know to NEVER go to Kentucky, I guess. Holy hell, what a dystopia.

Never thought I would see another "camping with Steve" in the wild.

H H Holmes intensifies

This is just the outrage bit. The law would still require them to be aggressive to the property owner or lease holder. So it's just a restating of their existing Stand Your Ground law.

The actual meat and potatoes is the construction of a homeless to life in prison pipeline. The bill includes a three strikes law and a 90 day jail stay for sleeping outside the designated area. These connect when the areas are setup as obnoxiously as possible, the homeless person's stuff/car is gone by the time they get out of prison, and then the police want to arrest them again. They're fishing for resisting arrest charges, AKA violent felonies, for the three strikes law.

They know they can't actually force them into a concentration camp. We still have some rights. So they've made a way to force them into prison, for life.

They are literally so inbred that they think they can get rid of poverty and homelessness by putting offenders longer in jail or shoot them.

What're the chances of it passing with a dem governor?

It's about homeless people. It's going to sail right through.

Do they suggest that land owner should feel ok if someone opens a tent on their property and decides to live there from now on? Normally, I guess you'd want your local law enforcement remove such unwanted guests, but looks like that isn't enough in this area...
