There is a misconception out there.Manteca never declared war on the homeless.What it did do was put city laws in place to address serious public health and safety concerns.Then — like every other law on the books that allows for police officer discretion — they enforce the spirit of the law and not the letter of the law.That’s not mumble jumble either. I see a lot of people on the street after midnight thanks to my work hours. Some are homeless, some aren’t.
