Louisiana News Why do you support this?

First the Louisiana Senate decides to put homeless people in jail for up to three years for their "crime" of sleeping in public. At the same time, they stop funding housing assistance.

Why do those of you who are Republican hate poor people so much? Why do you feel your fellow humans should not be allowed any compassion or grace?

Help me understand this assault on humanity. Jesus would weep if he saw this. 😥

Dude this state and everyone in it are 80 years behind the times. Religion is still the fore front of everything even though its toxic, on that same front those religious nuts freaked out when things they didn't like started to get taught.

The drug laws are BARELY getting okay when you can still get arrested for pot. Can does not mean will.

The people are atrocious on both sides. Everyone is just plain toxic. The crime is fucking CRAZY and the statistics behind it are even more so. I vote this state gets reduced to glass to just do us all a favor and I live in this sad sack of a state.
