Be it criminal to be living in poverty?
In Toronto it appears as so. Reverend Justin was recently fined $65 for 'aggressively' selling the "Street News" - this just peeves me to no end!!!
I can overstand the penalizing of an over aggressive pan handler. I cannot overstand the fine for hawking a newspaper
In my youth it was common place to hear the bawk of the local corner newspaper person constantly saying, "Times Paaaaaaper!!! Get your Times!!!". I am positive that never were they fined for their efforts to make mere pocket change.
I hope all can overstand that the Street News was/is developed to allow for those living in poverty to earn a few measly dollars without lowering themselves to BEGGING for your pennies. The few dollars they earn may mean the difference between being hungry (again) or not - between sleeping on a subway grate or not.
$65 is not much to the working soul, but to someone with ten cents in their pocket it can be a whole months groceries. It can be there room for a night.
I'm almost convinced that both Mayor Miller and Premier whatshisname are undercover Americans. The 'Dark NWO' trying to infiltrate we, The Light NWO.
For the municipal government to force the homeless out of the streets and under bridges, hiding in valleys and living in dangerous situations is just wrong. To be constantly Brown Shirting the homeless and poor with harassment and fear of monetary discipline is saddening and makes me wonder the true definition of socialism.
We shall all stand and declare our rights!!! We shall be heard!!!
Until then......
I remain....
