[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where did the bolded happen?[/quote] Charle Allen not only saying specifically he was for defunding the police, but laying out exactly how he and the Council were doing it in a Tweet, and then telling Congress he was never for that. A lot of defund folks are now claiming they were never for that, look at Councilmember comments from the summer of 2020, and many were in favor of shrinking the police force. Not to mention the number of people having to walk back the idea that crime isn’t a big problem now. See Mendelson awkwardly trying to walk back saying that there was no crime crisis and it was a problem of perception just a few months ago. People pretending this doesn’t happen are actively trying to mislead people. [quote=Anonymous]And you don't dispute that the tweet does not say that people should be able to build tent encampments wherever they want, right? [/quote] If you’re opposed to no-tent zones, as he clearly is in the Tweet, I don’t see how you can say he isn’t in favor of allowing people to put tents anywhere. I mean, this is pretty fundamental reading comperhension. If a person isn’t allowed to put up there tent somewhere, it’s a no-tent area. If there aren’t any no-tent areas, then someone can put there tent anywhere. I don’t really know why far-Left activists can’t be honest about what they actively stand for. Far-Right folk don’t say “we’re for removing all restrictions on guns, but that doesn’t mean we’re in favor of anyone being able to get guns whenever they want.” Buf for some reason this happens all the time with the far-Left - arguing against having any restrictions on something, and then saying it’s a lie to claim they’re in favor of letting people do whatever they want with no restrictions.[/quote] What he wants is more public investment in housing and affordable housing so that we don't need tent cities. The policy failure is in not having enough housing. [/quote]
