Great so a drug addled career criminal with no remorse and no desire to repent for her crimes gets basically no punishment as she is already in jail for another offense. Makes you wish that the stocks were an option.

This happened in progressive Portland, Oregon? I'm shocked.

"Career criminal," econoline? Her offenses are almost all for camping or otherwise related to camping. I'm not really surprised if she's not super-remorseful for being homeless. Christ.

You tough on crime types would be disgusted by the Canadian penal code, where people are only required to serve one third of their sentence before they are eligible for parole and most sentences are already pretty short anyways. And yet Canada is still there, quietly freezing its ass off in the woods and not slipping into utter crime induced chaos...

If we are unable to present people with viable and reasonable alternatives to homelessness or crime or whatever, then the entire point of the criminal justice system is rendered moot.

This woman is trapped in a homeless situation many are trapped in, and the system makes money from their homelessness. I spent 2 years homeless by choice studying this problem in portland. I am ashamed to think that the people of this city are so heartless. Many people drink and do drugs just to fall asleep at night because of the screaming, sirens, and by being preyed upon while trying to survive. This camping ban is inhumain. I dare any of you come come out on these streets with me for an education you will never forget...any takers?

Please wait...
