If you think you saw someone sleeping somewhere illegally, no you didn’t.

I’ve always applied the “should I be allowed to do it?” Reasoning to these circumstances. And yeah, I should be allowed to nap in the park on a nice day if I want.

Should I bring 6 shopping carts of stuff and block access to public benches for days/weeks at a time? No. But anyone just napping in the park is using the space as intended.

Considering this is a statue, it’s not impossible for someone to see someone completely still on a bench and think, “Jeez, I think someone went to sleep on that bench and died. I should call someone…”
