Ya I know its right next to PASS OUT PARK (i used to work for the city and thats what the emps called it). but i havent had any probs yet with vagrents and such.
Just carry a MICKIE with you and if anyone gives you trouble toss it in the gutter and you will be left alone. So bad i know but screw street people.any one who cant find work in this city isnt looking very hard.

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.

i agree with with mentally challenged but however drug addiction is not an excuse it is a choice you have mad good or bad but you have made the decision of drugs over shelter. my brother is a recovering Crack addict. so i know first hand hand.
However the majority of people on the street ARE there willingly. I am a bit of a hard *** but i feel we must all live with the decisions we make without trying to place blame on others or cercomstances. in the long run if you are NOT pardon the term Disabled, then you really have no excuse for not accepting the responsablity of your own actions. while cercomstances may be out of your control you should still be able to make the best off what you have. if your not happy with your surroundings then change them. Chef you work out of the drop in center?

 That's a drastic over-simplification! I work exclusively with street youth and their problems are severe. It's easy to feel this way, and I'm sure it's true for some homeless people....but for most, I would say it is not. Mental health, addiction and social factors all play a role....just to name a few.Edit: Hah, nemo....didn't notice your comment above. I guess I could have just written, "ditto"
