Denver Homeless Out Loud's attempt at a tiny home village was (temporarily?) ended on Saturday when the Denver Police Department, including a SWAT team, raided the park, arrested ten activists, and dismantled the structures. Here is Google's aggregation of news coverage of the raid.

Just a reminder that the liberal's confused notion of property is actually the dispossession of most people, and the market of capitalism (which prides itself on the price system as an elegant way to match supply to demand) cannot seem to provide the most necessary supplies to the most desperate needs.

"You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property. But in your existing society, private property is already done away with for nine-tenths of the population; its existence for the few is solely due to its non-existence in the hands of those nine-tenths. You reproach us, therefore, with intending to do away with a form of property, the necessary condition for whose existence is the non-existence of any property for the immense majority of society." -- M&E, 1848
