Weird thread. A little tough to distinguish at times between the sarcasm and the extreme legitimate opinions.
I think its a mistake to pretend to know what circumstances someone went through tah resulted with them to be on the street - you can talk all you want about tough times you had - but that's just one situation.
I also think people forget that a lot of homeless people are working. The working poor is one of the biggest problems in this city....folks can get a job but how are they supposed to save up the damage deposit+2 months worth of rent to land an apartment IF they are even lucky enough to find one and get approved.
You can choose to either help, or not help - up to you - but to look down on these people is remarkably arrogant.
