People at that time might've been a little uncomfortable, but wanting to look dignified out-weighed their discomfort. Society had moral compasses in them at that time and also something that doesn't exist today - strength of character. Nowadays go visit a downtown LA resident in their sidewalk tent - just watch what you step in on the way there - and being fluent in drug-induced slurred speech is a plus. Yes, America is SO MUCH better now. We should be very proud.
