Somehow I left out this passage when posting to Indymedia, but I have it right on Facebook. Oops, my bad. Without the first sentence the second sentence makes no sense.

"I made a visit to Santa Cruz's Homeless Resource Center and found that showers and laundry services are easily obtained shifting the focus of this event. The dichotomy is that it is illegal to sleep outside (tickets are plentiful) and rangers trash homeless' belongings when camps in wooded areas are discovered."
