In a strange bit of repeating history the Seattle City Council is getting ready to unconstitutionally harass panhandlers downtown with a very vague 'aggressive panhandling' ordinance, at the request of downtown 'business' groups. It appears that the vast majority of Seattle Citizens understand what this is about, as the Stranger reports.
Curiously, when this happened before these same folks were also in need of a bailout for their own mistakes. Last time they did get it, this time I don't think they will be so lucky with their own (constitutionally) 'aggressive' solicitation.
