In Pensacola, it is illegal for a homeless person to try to stay warm
under a blanket.

I doubt you would put up with a bunch of bums living next to your
house.




They just don't want their town to be a place overrun with bums.
I guarantee you, if it was happening in North Beach, they would run
them off citing this law (You may not camp or sleep overnight on
beach, pier, boardwalk, park, parking lot, etc.) and I am sure they
have that same basic law virtually everywhere that people with money
live.


So, your solution is to just leave them out there blanketless, so they
can die of exposure? I suppose that fits in with the free enterprise
system...with privatized body collection services who pick up the
remains and bill the city $1000 for disposal, eh?

Or perhaps they could go to a homeless shelter? You know, rather than die of exposure as you suggest
is Greg's solution? It appears Pensacola does have quite a selection:

Eh? And I didn't even have to put anyone down. What system would you have to replace the free
enterprise system?
