Of course it doesn't, but it certainly would not hurt your husband's ethos to claim that this is an issue he feels very strongly about and display some sort of connection or viable explanation as to why he feels strongly about it. Simply saying, "because it's illegal", isn't good enough. Lots of things are illegal, why does this issue in particular resonate with him?

I haven't claimed to have all the solutions or even the right ones.

I'm of the opinion this should never have been allowed to occur in first place.

Nenshi showed weakness (IMO) and they have taken advantage of that.
And there's the logos part of the argument. Okay, so it wasn't "handled" in a swift and ruthless manner (how would you have handled it, exactly?). But the issue here is what to do now. Without providing any logical explanation of how to deal with it beyond wrapping up their tents and booting them out, you are coming from a very weak position which makes it difficult for people to get on board.
