Four Homeless Sued in N.Y.C.

A shopowner in New York City has sued four homeless people and is seeking US$1 million from John Doe, Bob Doe, John Smith and Jane Doe.

I doubt that these people have $100 between them, let alone $1 million. Dollars, however, play little role in the lawsuit and it is based more on criminalizing homelessness.

Of course, this keeps with the neo-conservative tradition of fighting the poor and not poverty.
