[edit] Sexual Relations in Public

I do not see how "being seen having sexual relations in public" is a necessary prequisite to vagrancy. I suspect this is well-crafted and overlooked vandalism. I have removed it. If you have good reason to add this phrase back, please cite sources that define a strong link between vagrancy and sexual relations in public. 167.80.244.204 20:39, 2 April 2007 (UTC)Chevalier3

[edit] Crime

This crime is still being punished with a 30 - 180 day stint in JAIL in the US, because business concerns, law enforcement and "solid citizens"'s concerns regarding criminal behavior of vagrants and illegal aliens. 205.240.146.156 06:05, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vagrancy versus Beggars

I think there is a distinction between the term Vagrancy, beggars and destitute, therefore I question whether it is ok to use any of the term as a synonym to the word vagrancy in the article?

Secondly, one also need to explore what are the outlook in other countries as well, like for the matter in context of Capitalism, Social Movements and Reforms. Changes from the ages in the perspective of the government and the society towards such class.

thirdly we all can come together to at least discuss and bring out our feelings, experiences on the issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mansha Singh (talk • contribs) 12:13, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
