> Right - because say, there's obviously no nuance required between "rough sleepers are still people" and "let's add spikes to the building entrance so we don't have to look at rough sleepers in the morning".

Every single person, without exception, you included, would be really pissed off with and do everything to get rid of a rough sleeper sleeping on under their window.

Instead of adding spikes, they will call the police. They would add spikes, but the police are free.

I know this, you know this, I know that you know this, and you know that I know that you know this.

But because it is "others" getting rid of bums, people get to scoff online.

Like I said, it is one of the most deliciously hypocritical things about the internet. It causes my heart to race from excitement whenever I see someone do it.
