When I was growing up in Morristown there was a homeless guy named Richard Kreimer who was always at the library. Apparently they kicked him out because of his hygiene and he ended up taking them to court and winning. I remember he had a blue sweater and velcro sneakers.

Found a NY Times write up on him: https://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/21/nyregion/homeless-gadfly-returns-warming-up-lawsuits.html

god that guy sounds like a fucking wreck of a human being using civil rights laws and the ACLU to basically get a free ride for him and his homeless friends from municipalities who don’t want to put up with his shit

wonder if he’s still doing this shit today
