Not all street people choose not to look for a job or work. There are plenty of people who have jobs but are "street people" as the rents are to high. Then you have to factor in mental health issues(which i work with) and then there are drug issues,etc,etc::: And the biggest one is people who have just given up on life and themselves.

I think people are quick to judge homeless people as all bad. Its a stereotype just like racism and rich and poor.So the next time you see someone sitting on a bench or walking towards you across from Riverside don't just assume that they are a bum who doesn't deserve any respect as you don't know what has happened in there life and really WE don't have a right to make that assumption for ourselves.

Sorry for the thread hijack but i needed to say it.
