That's exactly what I was thinking. The other homeless were helped at east in part because it was the right thing to do, but with Heavy it seems like they just want to jump that last hurdle. From the quotes in the article it seems like they've taken him wanting to stay as a direct challenge, it's not really about helping him any more.
- electromagnetic 17y agoI find it interesting that in a recession, during a time of heightened homelessness why are they focusing on one man in Time Square. Is it perchance because Time Square is one of the biggest tourist destinations in New York? It's all I could think reading this. It's like a desperate attempt to create a fallacy that will ensure tourists will happily spend their dollars in stores, it doesn't appear to be a genuine humanitarian effort because harassing someone daily certainly isn't humanitarian - heck if I lived or worked around Time Square I'd probably offer to file a claim for injunctive relief on Heavy's behalf to keep the 'humanitarians' off his back.
