Recently, there have been particular laws made against the homeless community. A few examples of these laws are banned begging and loitering (Bello). Cities that target laws on the homeless are protecting the community, but they are also harming the homeless. There are multiple different factors that can lead a person to becoming homeless. They include: job loss,…

Imagine someone lost and not knowing when their next meal will be. They spend each night on the closet bench, which they call their bed. You 'll often see them begging or walking around town in their dirty and ripped articles of clothing, carrying around the only belongings left to their name.

Symbolic interactionism studies communication of meaning and social development of meaning using symbols, also the social construction of meaning that people impose on objects, events, and behaviours (Crossman, 2015).

Homeless people have the right to be authorized to live in these camps to get help that they fearfully need. Despite the fact that there homeless, there still part of the community.

But, he has no money, in which case he will be arrested. The problem that now arises is…
