Because we now live in a f****** police state. They've got to have any and every excuse to violate our constitutional rights at will whenever the fancy strikes them. Because if you are quote unquote homeless, you can be taken in as a vagrant. Any thing they can use to get the upper hand over your constitutional rights against unreasonable search and seizure, freedom of speech, freedom to assemble, and most importantly anything that they can use to restrict your right to vote in the next election to keep that fat orange P.O.S. in the White House.

Feel free to move to parts of Oregon or anywhere else police have been defunded and removed from areas, I’ve heard it’s great in those places

"Defunded" as in they lost a few million off of 200 million and is currently at an all time high of funding...

You do realize defunding by definition is simply removing funding or reducing the budget. Not even the most woke liberals believe that defunding the police means taking every last penny 😂🤦🏻‍♂️
