The Oregon case decided Friday is the most significant to come before the high court in decades on the issue and comes as a rising number of people in the U.S. are without a permanent place to live.

This is ridiculous. If I lose my job, can't pay my bills, lose my home, and there's no room in a shelter, what the hell am I supposed to do? I get that it's a problem for cities, including mine, to have homeless encampments, but there has to be a relief valve in the system. You have to give people some option for living that isn't illegal.

Such a fucked up court.
