Someone is shooting and stabbing homeless men

I lived in a small town in Mississippi for 10+ years... There were homeless people there, too. Doesn't always have to do with big city living.
I get it but its far more common and a bigger problem in big cities because of the inflation rates. You'd have basically entire streets filled with homeless people. The ones who do it by choice are also probably in the big city because they think living there is worth being homeless.

I could try to one up you on the experience thing and say "I have family members who were homeless." I didn't respond because I think that is the least valid form of argument, partially because anyone can say whatever they want on the internet, and because it is anecdotal.

You are vulnerable when you sleep outside. That is obvious, we shouldn't let people do that as an ordinary thing even if that is what they want.

I was homeless at one stage. Had to vault a wall covered in glass to sleep in a family shed. Wall glass, a wall that had broken beer bottles built into cement. Was normal as a defense back then as built 60's onwards. Was broken beer bottles built in.

Dog kept trying to say hello,kept shushing her away.

Then waiting for family to leave so I could go to work a shift and sneak back in. No smart-phone, just a chair for sleep.

I was homeless. I lived in a pissed stained chair in a shed until I had enough for my own place as the last people I lived with went mental on drugs. I didn't.

Bought my own place with ... well lets just say sweat and tears ain't a lie. No mortage.

You didn't sleep in a homeless shelter or accept government services why?

You're really going for this.

Times changed whilst talking about the same situation I said earlier. There was a break.

I'm talking about being homeless.

I had a job but couldn't afford a new place for a short time as I had to save.

Feel better now?

EDIT: "You didn't sleep in a homeless shelter or accept government services why?"

Dude ... seriously. I didn't because I had the nasty option. I took it at the time.

EDIT2: Go back on my previous posts in this thread about homeless people. I Worked those places and had no money.

Now, your experience? You trying to get me banned bro?

I once was generous to a homeless person too. It's crazy! That nice people with more money will simply share.

EDIT:3 I did ring them. My option was so far away from being living in a hostel.

I didn't understand most of that post, but I am not trying to get you banned. I'll leave this conversation where it is at out of concern for your mental health.
