Nobody thinks that courts are gonna solve homelessness. The problem with cases like this is that courts can make it a whole lot worse. And this decision's gonna make it worse because this decision greenlights jurisdictions that want to criminalize to go ahead and do that.
That's gonna put more pressure on jurisdictions like Los Angeles that want to have long-term solutions because we're already doing this in LA.
The widespread homelessness is an American problem. Legal mechanisms are not put in place to end homelessness. Enlightened politicians with veto proof majorities have not done what it takes to end nimbyism.
