You can also get done for "standing while homeless," and "standing while poorly dressed," and also "standing while black and/or Hispanic." Curiously enough, you'll never get nicked for loitering if you appear to be doing something vaguely socially acceptable. I suggest showing up with an easel and paints; you can hang around all day without anyone bothering you. permalink fedilink source parent
