    God I hate that shit. Fucking god forbid anyone just be able to sit somewhere, or stand around. I think if someone tried that shit with the places I usually hang around I would rip the speakers out the fucking wall.

      seriously

      Its one thing if people are blasting loud music at all hours, I guess that’s annoying, I can see where you’d at least want to go tell them to go away, but the first one was clearly just trying to sit somewhere out of the sun, and the others didn’t look harmful to me either really. Policing public streets, alleys, stoops, etc. is the thin end of the wedge of gentrification. Everything has to be quiet and calm and sanitized, for the comfort of wealthy transplants.
