New York City moves to make it 100 percent legal to urinate in public

New York City moves to make it 100 percent legal to urinate in public | Examiner.com

Of all the things one could think of that New York City needs more of, public urination doesn't immediately come to mind. But New York's City Council, which is so far left it almost collides with the right, is about to make it happen thanks to it's Speaker, a Puerto Rican nationalist who supports terrorists and rejects the Pledge of Allegiance. According to FrontPageMag Saturday, urinating and drinking in public would no longer be treated as crimes under a package of bills New York’s City Council will consider to ease enforcement of quality-of-life offenses that lawmakers say clog the courts and have been disproportionately enforced against minorities. OK, we get it, asking people not to urinate in public is now racist.

More forward "progress" from the left. Just moving ahead as a society.

It would seem NYC is doing it's best to catch up to the hell hole of San Francisco. They do have the advantage that the slide into oblivion will take considerably longer in NYC given it's massive economic power.

It continues to baffle me why the rich liberal 1%'er elitists who make up the majority of the population in NYC and San Francisco adopt these absurd ideas, when in fact, they look down so harshly on the unwashed trying to get by in their neighborhoods.
 
I think he can pee somewhere out of site. What do you think? Should he just be able to pee right on the sidewalk?

Wait until the lawsuits start getting filed, because women and children are being exposed to disgusting behavior! Maybe then the city will provide porta-potties at decent intervals for use by those that need them. And I note that only urination is covered - where are they to go for bowel movements, and why can't the same places be used for both functions? *Remind me not to go to NYC until this has been corrected* :mrgreen:
 
That's just stupid. Let's see a list of what you are talking about.

Meh... We will give you a clean slate and start from here. The list begins with this doozy of a misleading panic thread.

No, and it's still illegal to do that in NYC.

I also heard on the radio something about them wanting establishments with restrooms to be required to let anyone in off the street to use the restroom. I'm not sure of the details or how close it is to actually happening. Seems like they are dumping this (pun) on these businesses now. That's total crap.

I don't see any indication of any such proposed laws.

The latest is a requirement for buildings owned by New York City (city offices, schools, public gyms etc) to allow transgender individuals to use the bathroom that matches their gender identity. It has no effect on private businesses.

By the way, it's not easy to install public bathrooms in one of the most dense cities in the world, where there are lots of infrastructure concerns, and where residents will fight against it tooth and nail.

Let's not act like it's the same as it was. I'd say that there will be more people pissing in the streets of NYC now. Let's hope it's not a big difference.

That's probably what it was then, I only heard a bit of it. And, yes, of course, for NYC to try and start putting in public restrooms all over would be a major undertaking that I'm sure no one wants to get tied to.
