Gee, don’t local officials have a responsibility to enforce laws against loitering. I’d be willing to bet that the locale has them. Or did they take those off the books?

“The People’s Republik of Madistan” didn’t enforce theirs until things got really bad, i.e. open-air drug deals, Gang Bangers shootin’ up the streets at bar time, rowdy fistfights with chains and broken bottles after Hip-Hop concerts, etc.
They said those loitering laws discriminate against the “upstanding citizens” that are just out having fun! Yeesh!
(Hint: It wasn’t a bunch of Amish Youths coming in from the farm causing the problems. I’ve never SEEN a city so afraid of offending thugs in my life!)
These laws are only enforced for citizen people hanging around their friends that don't fit an ideal mold.
Loitering on private property? If the home depot doesn’t complain, it’s not their business, is it? They could pass an ordinance, I suppose. But instead they just said put em in a pen.
It went the way of "failure to give a good account."
I prefer the olden days.
