quite a lot of preassumptions on your side, eh? You seem to know more about the story's event than even we over here, and the author of the article, and the police.
On paper it all is nice and well, you know. Just that in practice and reality - things often look very different, more complex, more difficult.

Just give me the proof and stop with the sillyness please.

Crystal clear. But you will steal at one time, my friend. Your misery just needs to be big enough. If you are up to decide wether to steal something to eat, or start the third week in sequence with nothing to bite and red circles before your eyes, and you don't obey your human nature at that point, you would be a stupid.

Please do me a favor and never assume anything about me again. No misery is enough to tear away the values my family holds dear. NEVER! So take your crap elseware.

Just the same as they are today. Your silly attempt to paint a future is meaningless.

Or he was too hopeless or stubborn or to proud to ask for help - homeless people get looked down on all day long - if being looked at at all. Maybe his life has been like that since too long. There are a million reasons possible why this guy not headed for a shelter. And only a computer's processing can prove to be unable to understand these, and stick to nill-one-logic only.

Prove it... Show me proof he could not have gained help. Otherwise your silly post means little

Help is not allowing them to break the law. Help is developing fusion. Help is building the housing. Help is pointing them to shelters.
Theft is Theft please take off the bleeding heart shades for a moment.

What the hell is wrong with you? Please go seek help.

Stop letting people break the law. When you allow one to break the law it weakens the system. This is the reason I am against unenforceable laws such as drug laws.

So see if you can bring your grim fingerpointing regarding this homeless man into conformity with what Christ has taught regarding "love thy next like you love thyself" and what he lived by his own example when sitting together with the pariahs of society of his time when having a meal. After all, he is your religious icon, so the obligation is with you - for me he only was a wise mind like many others, and I am free to agree with him or not. So think of it and see if you are in conformity with him when you act by cold reason only and demand the law's full range to rule over the suffering (deserved or not) of a fallen man - or sink christmas altogether. That at least would be honest by you, then. Those of you being without guilt - throw the first stone. Ideally at christmas day - that would be the best of all timings.

NICE TRY! Too bad you assume that my view of religion clouds my judgement. Too bad I am not very religious (I believe in god and his son. I believe his son came down to help us advance from our dark ways at the time and move on)
I can only apologize for I know you thought that was the perfect MK-50 to drop from your bleeding heart Helicoper. To bad it ended up being a slow and weak one unable to catch me off guard. |
