Bet you have not been homeless and trying to get out or in jail.

Several folks, including Mr youtube guy sure take it to a ridiculous level of interpretation.

Highway pilot - the ordinance says store in a public place. Your car's trunk, or your RV, or the back seat of your car is not a public place. Good grief.. get ahold of yourself, and don't contribute to the conspiracy.

I don't think you really called the Lacey police or city attorney.

Bedroll in backseat is not stored in public place? True. But if the car is parked on a public street? Likely you are shopping, or eating, not camping, but if it is up to a cop to decide, it is scary to me. Most think all cops are good all the time. I have decided they are human, some good, some marginal. But some of the marginal, think because they have some power, nobody should question them, and this can lead to abuse of power.
Like most laws, a cop thinks you are in violation, you can defend yourself. If you prove you did not violate the law, there might still be a lot of expense, and it does not come out of the cop's pocket.
