Come on guys, use some critical thinking skills here.
Not commenting on the rest of your post, using my critical thinking, it would seem odd at best to expect people without a home, without an address, to be able to read or respond to mail. And court-dates are rarely if ever decided at the time of apprehension.
If your primary goal is merely to stay alive, I think you will find your priorities somewhat different from the ones had by the rest of society.
But I can see this going on and on. You have your point of view, I have mine. We're obviously not going to agree, so let's leave it at that.
- DanielBMarkham 17y agoI'm willing to let it go, with one caveat: getting, reading, and responding to mail is a different problem from failing to appear in court. We can solve the first one, but conflating the two doesn't help any. It sounds like there is an opportunity for people to help homeless folks by providing them with post office boxes and voice mail. Seems like I read that a lot of charities are already doing that? Wouldn't that be a cool startup idea? (if you could find a way to monetize it) To me, this conversation has the same problem that homelessness itself has (and I speak from experience). You can either look at everything like an obstacle or like an opportunity.
