So you want homeless people to be jailed, because you like a clean side-walk? I find that... Strange.
I walk by a typical homeless sleeping spot every morning, and while I do not enjoy the smell, my first reaction is to wonder: Why are these people out here, why do they have no home, why is there no toilette for them to use, etc, etc?
How about donating some money to groups like Glide and other organizations that help the homeless? That's what I do.
- rtra 16y agoWhy indeed. Where I live we have vacant free shelters where one can get a bed, a shower and a meal, and yet there are those who absolutely insist in pan handling for their next bottle. A sad picture.
- gnosis 16y agoHave you ever spent a night in a shelter? More to the point, have you ever been mentally ill and spent weeks, months, or even years in shelters?
- rtra 16y agoI haven't done any of those things. Yet I'd wage it would be better to live on a shelter than on the streets, unless one has some serious psychological demons, in which case an hospital with specialized care should be preferable.
