is that fucking seriously sick?
if your homeless and have medical/mental/emotional problems ...where do you think these people should actualy go to get help?
if you walk round town day after day after day ...asking for jobs ...even washing up at the back of a hotel ...how soon would you loose heart at being told ... 'fuck off before i call the police!'
imagine suffering depression and being on a frozen street night after night day after day ...no ones going to give you a job ...no one is going to deal with any of your problems ...no one realy gives a fuck about the likes of you ...and all the while ...you get to read a discarded newspaper most days.
becks earns a bazillion quid for having a nice haircut ...his wife gets another bazillion for wearin g a tight frock ...do you think you'd become more depressed?
i too am disturbed by a lot of comments in this thread.
the ignorance is seriously frightening.
the uncaring i'm ok attitude is so sad.
the play station generation.
the eat as much as you can till you pop people.
I know...well tbh, I've beat him a few times but he'll never admit that
Exactly. I go in and read that stuff everyday. It should be called the we'll slag you off until you agree with us ("us" being a few abusive big headed asses) and not debate.
And Mr. Roll *applauds* When you have something usefull to say, you are very wise.
As do I. But I'm not going to bother trying to participate if I end up being called names like lucifer devil did for having an opinion.
Yeah, he might be a horrible person. My point is that you don't know, however there seems to be an attitude on this thread that homeless people are horrible, lazy, scary and feckless people. They're human beings like me and you, with all the good points and bad points that go with being human.
I'm not "judging everyone here on their opinions and experiences". I'm taking people up on their ignorant and offensive opnions.
Maybe 'cos they know they'll get pulled up for having a shitty ignorant attitude?
PML
Doesn't anything get you angry then? Don't you feel passionate about anything?
thats better, making your point without being horrible to people.
Maybe I have a right to be angry?
Some people do have an ignorant attitude, but there is no need to verbally abuse people because of it. There are much nicer ways to tell people they dont know what they are talking about.
So you never get angry and passionate about something?
Of course I do. But I don't feel the need to express myself in such an insulting way, and I generally expect others to do the same. If I want people hear vulgar insults get thrown at me I'll go and stand outside of the local secondary school.
Oh yes, thats it. And phrased so eloquently. The people who don't debate in there are morons.
And since when is an opinion wrong? Lucifer may type what she did becasue it was her opinion; a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty. She stated what she thought. Sugar stated her experiences and thoughts on them. The fact that one person cannot deal that somebodies opinions and thoughts differ from theirs and stoop to such lowness to go around calling them ignorant and cunts. The last I heard, stating an experience that you had was not ignorance or cuntworthy.
and if I want to hear insulting and offensive views on homelessness I'll go to my local conservative party meeting. I found lucifer devil's views extremely offensive and insulting.
so all opinions are equally valid? bullshit
Try talking to people who actually work with them, who talk to them on a regular basis.
Then you'll realise they're more than lazy drunks, they're humans who need our help.
I survive quite well, thank you.
But her comments weren't a personal attack on you specifically, were they? Yours to her were.
Yeah, they were actually.
Show us where she said, Blagsta, you are an ignorant stupid cunt.
Fin, ok then.
Clearly I'm wasting my time here then. I won't bother in future, I can actually have intelligent debate without childish and vulgar name-calling elsewhere.
I can show you where she insulted me, some of my friends and my clients if you like
no, they weren't. the worst i called you was a 'silly little fucker' or something along those lines. i didn't aim anything specifically at you. you did at me though.
I wasn't on about that. As I already said (more than once), I find your views on homeless people personally insulting.
well i'm sorry if i offended you so much. i was merely stating my opinion. just as you did. now end of.
His above post pretty much sums everything up for me.
