Take a look at this. Homeless people are so resourceful--I mean if they weren't, there wouldn't be any homeless; because they'd have died before they could really be called "homeless."
Can't we use them in the city planning departments as, let's say, consultants? I guess it would be controversial to allow them to say, We want to stay under the freeway.
If the government says, Okay, then do it! So let's say IF the government were to allow that--then they'd be criticized for classism? They are "sponsoring" homeless shelter in dangerous places? But what about now, that the homeless want to live there, because it is a safe haven--now that the government has found out, they are swept out. Now they don't have anywhere to stay.
...By the way, the best part of this story:
At nearby San Angelo Park, booths were set up to help homeless people find shelter. Doctors checked vital signs, and hot dogs were distributed. "This is not to take away their home, this is to give a home," Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore said.Stop with the B.S. Really? So are you telling me this little station at San Angelo Park will be there all the time? Homeless party, or what? No--it is this one time. You're offering them services this one time! It's a publicity stunt. These people have no where to go, no one to watch out for them when the public is not looking--when the newsmen aren't around. Let's face it, Whitmore. You are taking away their home. I'm not saying these people are the best people--they probably have their drug/alcohol problems--but are we just gonna pretend homeless people aren't a problem the city needs to somehow fix?
Another interesting piece of news. 300,000 people are dying from the effects of global warming. Yah. Right NOW. It's happening. I'm scared. I'm indignant that my human race is so ignorant. I am ignorant. I didn't know til now. What can I do. How can I feel the urgency to be green when everybody around me trashes our World. I wish Wall-E could help me!
