But they want to make it illegal to have a large soda?

Does decriminalization mean no fines too?
Think how much money most go into putting a homeless person in prison just for pissing.

Not like the practice was being deterred under the old policy

Trying to cut off the need to pee at the source.

No lie. After Endymion, we headed to bourbon. It was packed, but this lady (huge.. Looked like your typical SJW) dropped her pants and panties, squated and pissed as people walked by. Didn't try to hide it

This is what would make you not want to come here? Are such things assessed criminal or civil penalties where you live?

It's still illegal, but it's decriminalized. You still get a ticket and pay a fine for it, but you won't get a criminal record.
Seems reasonable.

I thought criminalizing these things and enforcing laws at the lowest level was their whole strategy (and a successful one) for cleaning up Times Square and other areas of Manhattan?

NY today is basically the way it was in Little Nicky 15 years ago.

In Giuliani's case, it was to crack down on quality of life issues (loud music, public urination, smoking pot in public, etc.).
I lived in Manhattan from '83-'98 and let me tell you, Rudy G.'s program is what turned that city around. Looks like the current administration is OK with letting things back slide.

How is this a deterrent for a bum? I'm sure they are going to be running to the court at the first opportunity to pay up.

Jail isn't a deterrent for a bum either. A lot of them like jail for the shelter and free food.
