A few more nails in the American coffin :

The Supreme Court said it's ok for cities to criminalize homelessness on the same day they said courts can now toss out whatever regulations they disapprove of.

Sleeping on a bench? Go to jail.

Dumping toxic waste into the river? The statute is ambiguous, you can keep going.

Attempted to overthrow the government by storming the Capitol? That's ok as long as you didn't actually touch documents vital to a proceeding. Just don't sleep on the bench outside though, then you'll go to jail.

you know society is bereft of morals and values when they criminalise homelessness which most people have minimal control over.  I haven't met someone who's homeless who said I just didn't want to live in a house anymore.  They are the down trodden victims of social disorder resulting in a spiral of hopelessness and a cycle of poverty that would be difficult to break out of.  Yes someone them have made some really poor choices but these people would probably choose prison over the streets.  At least they will. Know where their next meal comes from.
