Honest question- i have narcolepsy. I've had sleep attacks in public.
Does this criminalize a symptom of my disability?
Yes, you must be fined and jailed so you can assemble very important widgets.
Potentially. If you know an attack is coming and use a blanket or pillow, yes.
It's only legal to sleep in public without any bedding and without a cache of personal objects nearby, because that "implies the intent to establish a temporary residence".
That sounds like a significant challenge. One which if it ever gained enough traction to make it to the SC would be struck down setting a precedent to criminalize "mental illness" which would in turn be used as a precedent to criminalize more general ailments.
