You act as if I said it would. And then you let loose a bunch of pent up classist bullshit.

Classist? WTF do you know about class? You're most likely from a nice safe bourgeois middle class home and have been pampered all your life. The reality is people who hold your beliefs are the class enemies. You're the one putting the lumpenproletariat before the working class. Every tax dollar spent on street junkies, bums, and the lazy is a tax dollar not going to helping working class and poor kids succeed in life. Your taking tax dollars from kids and handing it middle aged, middle class bums to shove in their arms. Yes, 25-30 is middle aged as many won't see 50. Your bs is exactly what is going to get radical reactionary rightist into office.

" You really don't know much about the homeless class that surrounds you. The reality is, the vast majority of homeless people don't have the means to show up 15 minutes before work starts, and have some sort of physical or health problem that prevents them from being physically capable of busting their hump for the entire day in a competent manner. "

That is what you said. "physical or health problems" I said mental problems and physical

So you can say it and its not classiest but I say it. It is?
Get off your damn high horse and for being a pos trying to say something I didn't.

Statistics and stereotypes are things based on given fact/truth. Sadly lots of homeless want a chance. But don't do anything to their "Fellow" brethren when they ruin it for the rest. 1 bad apple spoils the bunch.

I provided a reason for why they're unable to do the things OP claimed.

You wrote a fictional novel giving every reason you could come up for why they're unworthy of empathy.

If you can't see the difference, I can't help you.

Edit:

And heres some statistic for your claims that all homeless people are drug abusers: Only 10-15% of homeless people use drugs vs. 13% from the general population

So someone needs to go back and check their statistic and make sure they align with their bullshit stereotypes, and it ain't me.

Dont want help from someone like you who will damn others for pointing out given facts and proven ones as to why the help given already should be enough and as much as humanity and goodwill should be given to all. Some abuse it or refuse to do good for themselves.

You're not pointing out facts. You're spreading lies you ignorant dumbass.

Homeless people are more likely to be the victim of a violent crime than to commit it.

Housed people commit violent crime at higher rates than the homeless.

Thats new york at shelters. The shelters meant to be safe locations for them. If they themselves refuse to be good onto themselves and others in the same postion as them. Why give them more when they squander what they got already?

God damn you're dumb. Read your own source:

>Statistics represent arrests occurring at homeless shelter locations and do not reflect location of offense precipitating arrest or arrestee association with shelter.
