Topic: The Homeless, What should be Done...? | |
---|---|
Hi Rambill, I want to talk with guys after all. I've not only read
CANNERY ROW about fifty times but I had to teach it for about 20 years. Hey, I even saw the movie--Nick Nolte was it? |

Hi, this is about serious stuff. We'll play later. You got it wrong.
in Texas we aren't raw fish; we just eat 'em that way--scales, eyeballs, fins and all. MM |

|
|
yah its a comedy, i guess, but it shows why some people are on the
streets. Like the BALL PLAYER WHO threw a bad pitch and injured a player a an example. |

Hi...Sushi...?

Hey greeneyes, my mother when i was living with her tried her best to
get out of working for her money, and she still does. she will live with the worst man in the world just so she could get a little more money into the house. so i know how these people work. and sushi.. WTF are you talking about.. this is about homeless people not fkn talking about hurricane victims.. totally different. homeless people CAN do something about thier situation but CHOOSE not too. hurricane victims couldnt help what was going to happen.. im sure all of us helped out in katrina.. hell i even took pillows and blankets off my own bed to give.. gave away every stuffed animal i had just so some random little kid would have something to hold at night. so i dont know what you were trying to imply but you aren't the only one that helped out there. and yes.. if i feel it necessary i would give a homeless guy some food and clothing but i will not give him money, alcohol or ciggerettes.. there are just some things you have to give up if you want to make it. |

|
|
Okay....I agree, but if you got a carton of smokes...can,t you let the
guy have one...? |
|
|
|
of course but i wouldnt go out and buy a carton for him.. thats my money
and my hard earned money.. im not just going to go and throw it away just because someone other than me has a bad habit and cant support it |
|
|
|
yeah you got a point there, it is a nasty habit lol. Wish i could quit,
but Im toooooo weak!!!!! |
|
|
|
life isnt about what we can get but rather what we give. This is the
true value of a person. quote me freely on that one. |

I have been in the ministry all my adult life and I have been on BOTH
sides of the life of homelessness. I believe EVERYONE NEEDS to be homeless at least ONCE in their lives! Some people are homeless because of drugs and/or alcohol...some are homeless because of health reasons, mentle health reasons, loosing job, some disabled vets, also, are out there because the jerko VA refuses to help them...there are as many reasons as there are homeless and BELIEVE ME there are not that many who are homeless BY CHOICE...Although, I am sure, there are some people who WANT TO BE HOMELESS. With the USA the way it is getting, we all, soon, may be homeless. I agree that we do not need to give money to the homeless, but DO GIVE food and if possible, a place to stay or look up places for them to get help...but to be cold and uncaring and saying all homeless people are alike, is very narrow-mind thinking. People who snub their noses at the homeless or poor people, will one day have to suffer the same fate...if not here, in this world, then in the after-life...whatever you do, be it good or evil, will come back upon you. |

Hummm...Profound..., Insightful....Logical....Okay Rambill, its a deal.
|
|
|
|
Everyone should be homeless once....lady stfu
|
|
|
|
Truth.. i really don't think anyone SHOULD be homeless once in thier
life.. and everything i have said is the truth whether you want to believe it or not.. now i haven't had the perfect life and i've been through things that people 80 years old haven't been through. so, dont go saying i'm narrow minded. nuff said peace |

|

GUILTY? WTF lady.. are you fuking crazy?? i wasnt saying you were
pointing a finger at me.. i was commenting on your post. and i really think you should read everything in a thread before you comment.. which apparently you didn't do because you WOULD have been pointing your fkn 'finger' at me. WTFE i'm done with you.. your worthless and WTF are you doing on here anyways? i thought you found the 'love of your life' a few days ago.. did you come from that mental institution down the road? ok dont answer that question cause i dont really fkn care.. just get out of my face BE GONE! |
