Well, while I would like to initially agree, I have a couple comments to ponder. 1- Are they mentally ill now? If so, they need to go into another catagory, and like I already said, I agree with helping them. 2- Why is it the soilders from WW1 and WW2 didn't have the same issues, yet they saw some pretty graphic images? WHat made 1 generation be able to take it (or surpress it) and the other generation got all messed up?

But other wise I agree, most homeless people either had piss poor upbringing or made piss poor choices in life...

Thanks man...I feel like I'm on an island out here.

I remember my only trip to New York city, there were people getting on the subway's begging for money. I would not give them nothing and this one homeless guy started to harrass me about it. He was saying stuff like "What? You think your better than me? Why can't you give me any money? You're no better than me..." I didn't give him any money but that was pretty damn arrogant for him or any homeless person just to expect people to give them money...

You can thank all those idiots that give to them regularly. It's like if you feed a stray dog on your front porch, he will continue to come back, and if you continue to feed him, he will expect it.

I have a story that just happened about 1 month ago. My wife was coming out of wal mart, and a homeless person was on the corner with a sign that said "will work for food". She rolled down the window and said "my lawn needs to be mowed if your interested", (I am very allergic to something in the grass here) he actually said F.U. to her. When I got word of this, I was livid, I drove down there and saw that he had a dog too. I went into wal mart and bought a small bag of dog food. I went up to the homeless person and gave it to him. He asked "what the hell is this"? I said "it's food for your dog, and since you're not willing to work, you can share it with him too." He muttered something, and I said, "maybe next time you should actually do what your sign says and mow a lawn." I drove away to him giving me the finger. But at least the dog won't go hungry.
