Impeach Judge Kim McLane Wardlaw

Public Health laws are more important than individual rights and take precedent. No one has the right to contaminate the public areas. Sidewalks don't flush. Urban renewal is more important than the homeless. The 8th Amendment barring of " cruel and unusual punishment" has nothing to do with clearing public walkways of sleeping bums.

Who would deny these statements? Judge Kim McLane Wardlaw does. She sits on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in San Francisco. She ruled in the majority of a 2-1 panel that invalidated a 37 year old ordinance in Los Angeles. Shw wrote in her opinion, " The 8th Amendment barring 'cruel and unusual punishment' prohibits Los Angeles from punishing involuntary sitting, lying or sleeping on public sidewalks that is an unavoidable consequence of being human and homeless without shelter." She is a moron.

The area in question in L.A. is 50 blocks square. It is called Skid Row. Recently there has been an urban renewal of part of that area. New apartments and condominiums have been built. That's good for the city and it's people. But the new inhabitants resent that homeless/bums have to be stepped over or avoided because they might be dangerous. Enter the L.A. Police to clean up the area. Then enter activist lawyers that are pro bums paid hansomely by the taxpayers. Then enter Judge Wardlaw.

One wonders about Judge Wardlaw's personal hygiene habits when she ignores the discriptions of what the downside is of sidewalks that don't flush. But one shouldn't wonder that she is incompetent and should be removed from the bench.Again. No one has the liberty or right to contaminate public areas.
