 \n\nPeaceful SafeGround Rally at Sacramento City Hall\n10 AM on Thursday, 
 September 10, 2009\n\nSacramento City Hall\n915 I Street\nSacramento, 
 95814\n\nWhy Hasn't Sacramento Provided a Safe and Legal Place to Camp?\n\n 
 The number of homeless people has risen by 14% in just two years. Shelters 
 are turning away hundreds of men, woman and children every night for lack 
 of space.  Why would we arrest people who have nowhere to go? Shouldn't the 
 city spend its money on housing for people rather than on jails? 
 Criminalizing homelessness is unjust and solves nothing.\n\n Please support 
 the more than 1,200 homeless people who will sleep outside in Sacramento 
 tonight and every night.\n\n Come to the SafeGround Rally this Thursday at 
 10 AM at City Hall.\n\n Ask our Mayor, City Council and City Manager to act 
 immediately to:\n\n 1. Declare a moratorium on enforcement of the 
 anti-camping ordinance. It is unjust to cite and arrest people who have 
 nowhere else to go..\n\n 2. Provide SafeGround, a legal campground for 
 homeless people who have signed a pledge of no drugs, no alcohol, no 
 violence. \n \n\nLoaves & Fishes        Francis House    Sacramento
