    Lot of craziness goin on. Walked outside and noticed bright flashing lights which were cop cars up ahead down the block with a bunch of officers (coulnt see but like 6 at this point but this doesnt surprise me) and like a couple cop cars behind me in traffic waitin on tha light to change. Theres this one particular dude in front of me thats walkin weird like he's fuckd up and I intend to pass him. As i'm approaching him he looks back really suspicious at the fire engine that was comin' down tha block with sirens wailing. I dont look back cuz its normal happens every couple minutes it seems I tell him dont trip and he says I know and give me a really obvious handshake and I think "does this really look good with all these cops?". He tells me he was just released from central bookin and did 2 1/2 years. I said damn that sux the most ive done was 4 1/2 months. He askes me for a dollar and I say I got plastic, then he askes me if I could buy him something to drink and I said no. When I get to the corner i notice like 15 officers surrounding idk how many people on the ground and I say "don't trip man,...its the worst thing you can do". I cross the street and 3 or 4 people ask me for money and tell em all no. The last one I tell her wait till I get out of the store and say there wasm't any change. 2 people ask for change walkin back and the 3rd one I tell "i'm gonna tell you what ive told everyone else thats asked me for money within 2 blocks, i dont have any money"

    made me kinda not wanna go back inside, but i dont wanna get death by firing squad :p

    some shit just makes you think "damn that was a lot of shit to happen in such a short span" not all bad though, the other day there was some kind of nerd fest that shit was trippy for real when I walked through it seems like ive seen it before

    I don't mean to be rude, but what's the point? How is this interesting?
    Your Firefighters are busy and your police officers are busy - that busy?
    There are 'bums' in your area...
    And?

    Point is, In his area, He cant walk to the store and back without some fucking piece of shit asking for a handout.
    On a good day/week, They make more than the common man that works for it and they go and buy crack with quarters, Dimes, Nickels and pennies or booze if the day didn't pan out.
    Nothing like living in the gutter, Not like they cant get a job and out, But choose to bang smack and take blasts from a crack pipe and collect for free along with panhandling.
    Offer to buy them a sandwich, They get offended you didn't give them drug money.

    That's what the bastards do, If you gave him one, And the rest of the line and or just a few, He gets his drug money and is back when the with-draws hit.
    They need to start rounding up the lowlifes that sit and panhandle and beg and drop them off a couple hundred miles outside of the city. That or arrest them for vagrancy and lock them up.

    He brought some nappies. I was a little hesitant at first. It's usually booze not drugs around here. But sure enough, he did buy some. It was just a little funny talking about it one day and it happening the next. It happens from time to time around here, not that often.

    The way that you look at the homeless might change if you were homeless yourself. I don't think that there is anyone who could not end up homeless under the wrong circumstances.

    these are all admirable things.

    however, let's say you get injured at work. or one of your current health problems gets worse. the pain in your back is so bad, you've got to take pills...lots of them. soon it gets out of control, you need more pain pills but you aren't getting enough, and even with your disablility check (assuming you can get one), it's not enough to cover the costs.

    your family is sympathetic, but seeing you slide into addiction, they are unwilling to give you money. you try to explain that you need the pills for the pain, and that the prescription alone isn't enough. they are not convinced.

    a number of your friends turn their backs on you right away. some stick with you for a while, but see that you are out of control. and so then...
