    They already don’t have rights, but the laws are different from city to city. In some places they can’t be fed in public and people get arrested for giving them food. They can’t be on the sidewalk. They’re obviously not allowed to fall asleep as long as they’re unhoused. Plus parking restrictions created specifically to prevent car camping. Taking trash from dumpsters is considered theft. You can’t use a restroom without buying something and cities have taken out all or most public bathrooms, so it becomes a crime just to relieve themselves. Idk, the list is pretty endless.

      honestly the car camping restrictions are my biggest peeve. You wanna evict me in the morning sure. But fuck you i’ll sleep in my car if i damn well please.

      I’ve never understood why people seem to be content with society being for the “average person” as a certifiably not average person myself it’s actually insane. Literally just want to mind my own business, and it would actually be easier to mind everybody elses business.
