So it is illegal to sleep on a bench?

Yes. Vagrancy and loitering laws criminalize the homeless people in our community

I am not a native English and I remember having a really hard time understanding what "loitering" actually means. I thought "it cannot mean just standing around. it is a crime after all. how can 'just to exist' be crime?"

Now that I am older I see that it is just an excuse to discriminate.
