Oregon judge pauses camping ban enforcement in city at heart of Supreme Court homelessness ruling
Story by CLAIRE RUSH • 13h

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon judge on Monday ordered the city at the heart of a major U.S. Supreme Court ruling on homeless encampments to temporarily pause enforcement of its camping rules, in response to a lawsuit filed by advocates against the city.

Josephine County Circuit Court Judge Brandon Thueson's temporary restraining order prohibits Grants Pass from enforcing its camping regulations for 14 days. During that time, the city cannot cite, arrest or fine people for camping anywhere in the city, nor force a person to leave a campsite, the order says.
 
“This is an important issue, and we are actively reviewing all aspects to ensure we make the best decision for our community,” Grants Pass Information Coordinator Mike Zacchino said in an email. The mayor and interim city attorney did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

If the Framers of the Constitution made one mistake, it was trusting in the integrity and honesty of the legal system.  Liberals have managed to bastardize it to where it is nothing but a shadow of what was intended. :facepalm2:
