ok I am watching America's Most Wanted and there was this story about this gang tht would take homeless ppl and make them slaves, making them sell drugs 24/7 and if they thought the homeless ppl didnt work hard enough, they would kill them. they did this re-inactment about it and it showed this poor old homeless guy begging the gang for food and the gang thru chinese food at him and the homeless guy would eat the scraps. i get so sad when things like this happen to the homeless cause they are so harmless and real needy (not a bad thing). I feel sooo bad now after i saw tht re-inactment. I cant even go to DC cause there are homeless ppl and i just will feel so bad for them. I always bring like $10 when i do go to DC so i could get the homeless some food or something.
is there NE one else tht feel bad for the homeless? i hear alot of ppl hate them cause they think all homeless are drunkies and druggies and all.. |

I feel really bad for them.
Some of them choose that lifestyle, and I personally think that's cool of them.. to give up so much to have a really awful lifestyle (in my opinion). I do feel bad for them, though. |

That is really sad. it is terrible that people would even think about taking advantage of homeless people. damn them! i sometimes feel sorry for homeless people but then i think if i ever met one and was like, "i feel sorry for you." they would be like, "don't feel sorry for me, i don't need anyone's help." but yeah...that is really sad. we don't have alot of homeless people in the part of texas that i live in. but downtown, we have alot of homeless shelters that help people like that.

yeah, i feel sorry for them sometimes. but i feel bad if they ask me for money, and i don't give it to them, so i just try to ignore them.

Yeah I feel sorry for all of them. The druggies & drunk need help, SERIOUS help, but they have no money or no one who cares enough to help them. The rest. Yeah.

yes i feel bad for homeless people. we had a debate in my class about whos fault is it taht homeless people are homeless. its both the homeless fault and the goverments fault. if you used your money on drugs and **** then its your fault you became homeless. its the govements fault because the make it so hard on they people to pay taxes and raising the prices on ever thing.

I feel bad for SOME homeless people... because sometimes homeless people come up to my boyfriend and I asking for a cigarette and stuff.. I feel bad for those homeless people that actually try to 'make' their money.. like when they say they will wash your windshield or whatever... I mean, at least you know they will 'work' for the money... but I never let them do it, I just give them the money... there are a lot of 'homeless' people here in Vegas, and sometimes in school, I hear stories of how most of the people that are on the corners of the streets with the little cardboard signs asking for money.. aren't really homeless or whatever.. and that that's what they do for a living or whatever... so, eh

oOOh! I just saw that on TV!!!! And well I feel sorry that they would have to do that to the homeless person. >.<
Then again, they can always just like...pick themselves right up and get a job instead of sitting there like a homeless person..you know? |

Yeh.. there was this little old lady, always selling flowers and shaking her little cup for donations. I don't think she could even talk. I always wanted to just buy all those beautiful flowers and give them out.. and then fill her little cup with money. Unfortunately, I was 9 and broke.
Then there was the huge smelly guy yelling and cursing at me to get off is 'property'. Which happened to be a sidewalk in the middle of the promenade in santa monica. |

It depends on the reason why they're homeless. If it's drugs, smoke and alchohol, then I won't care.

Yes i feel bad for REAL homeless people, but as for the drunkies and turn themselves to homeless then NO. I saw this man in toronto he lost the bottom half of his 2 arms and his whole 2 legs. He could play one of those intrument that kinda looks like a piano. NOW thats someone who I admire, he is practivally disable and is still able to make a living with what he has left.
