Official homeless people hate thread - It's easy to hate the rich but are you brave enough to hate the poor.

Canada's homelessness problem is so bad I genuinely believe that the only solution is to arrest any homeless person on the street.

Canada’s homeless problem would be solved if we deported every Jeet (houses that could house 4-5 homeless renting a bunkhouse instead house 20-30 Jeets)

Canada's homelessness problem is so bad I genuinely believe that the only solution is to arrest any homeless person on the street.

Canadian homelessness is caused by:

1. A drug pandemic that slowly evolve people into anti-social lunatics that nobody wants to be around. There are plenty of social services, but they only work if you're not randomly trying to attack social workers.
2. Local tax structures that keep property taxes artificially low by taxing new housing developments
3. Local housing rules that make it impossible to build housing.
4. Local housing groups made up of boomers that block new housing to keep their housing more valuable
5. Federal immigration policy that wants to get Canada to 100 million by 2100. Very few of these immigrants actually go to work in construction and alot of them are old/dependent women from socially conservative countries who will never work.
6. Provincial governments lowering standards to make a cheap buck off of foreign students. These people take up housing that would otherwise go to poor people and contribute little to the actual economy.

Immigration is only a small part of the story.

You know what grinds my gears? Seeing homeless people at intersections with their dogs during super hot or cold days. Although I shouldn't be surprised someone who cannot take care of themselves is not being a responsible pet owner.

Also seeing PSAs from the city nearest saying to donate to a local non-profit instead of giving money to homeless person begging. Because I'm sure most of my donation would go straight to the helping those in need and not to the pockets of the organization's executives.

Non-profits and charities still make money. They just collect it as salaries.

Legitimate charities like the Salvation Army at least have the decency to pay their CEO and staff normal wages and not grift.

The worst part is they put those poor dogs in the middle of traffic all day, and nearly every time it's intentional to get more sympathy and money.

You really have to try to be homeless for more than a few months. I know people are pessimistic, but really, there are plenty of good people out there that will help you out eventually. The only reason why these people are out for so long is because they're drug addicted and/or unwilling to work. They would come in to my little corner store job and refuse work because they preferred just sitting on their ass drinking all day. In one city I lived in, lots of them were clearing 20+/hr from begging at a good stoplight and would just be standing there eating domino's or whatever the fuck, and believe it or not, some of them have wives and kids and just get picked up and go home at the end of the day. Here in my current city, you get spics holding babies trying to sell flowers for $1 a piece, and every single corner has 1-2 niggers holding up cardboard signs and trying to clean your windshield.

Absolutely show charity to people who are down on their luck, but most homeless are just drug addicts who want an excuse to sit around all day drinking and oftentimes have been kicked out of homeless shelters.

 

[Lady Bizness]

The dumb old hippies around my community keep trying to help the homeless only to get hurt, or have their property damaged when they let them couch surf. Then they head to Nextdoor to complain about it only to have other dumb old hippies tell them not to let one incident tarnish their compassion.

 

[Soggy paper straw]

One big misconception about homelessness is that people are homeless for a long time. The overwhelming majority of homeless people get their shit sorted out in like 2 months with the help of govt programs and charities.

It's a lot worse than this

The great majority of homeless people are not "rough sleeping" (ie sleeping in the street). In the western world, there are so many programs to avoid ending up in the street, that it is something that you almost need to actively pursue to end up like that.
Let's also remember that to end up in the street, it means that you don't have anyone in your life that will let you sleep on their couch while you find another job. It is not just government programs.

I am all for helping people who hit a rough patch and need some help for a brief time.
This does not mean "give them narcan to keep them living forever" and "give them new tents every week or so because they will shit in it, break it, or have it stolen by another bum"

pl I've worked for a non profit that helps "homeless youth" basically train hoppers and whatnot we get paid crap because we are working off grants, salvation army is a corporation hence having a ceo. From what I understand they just use nonprofit status to skirt taxes and have "volunteers" instead of employees.

 

[gobbles]

On my drive home from work, there were two homeless beggars. The first was begging at the entrance to a freeway ramp which was obnoxious and fucking dangerous. He looked like he was tweaking; he was weaving on and off the curb. I genuinely thought he might jump in front of my car.

The second was a young, white, seemingly fit well-groomed man with a fucking joke (about a kidnapped wife and dog) on his cardboard sign.

I am disgusted by the entitlement to other people’s money. You are young and fit—go join the military. Or a circus. Or a construction crew.

I hate the homeless.

The worst is when they try to guilt trip you using religion. The Bible says if you won't work you shouldn't eat

 

[DrunkenLemon]

Kill homeless, behead homeless, roundhouse kick homeless into concrete!

Crucify filthy homeless, karate chop homeless in half, report homeless to the IRS regardless of income, feed homeless to other homeless, table flip homeless, launch homeless into space and destroy earth for no home planet for homeless to return to.

Paper shred homeless, nuke homeless, disintegrate homeless with a ray gun, mandatory abortions for homeless, steamroller homeless for real, pull apart homeless by horses, actively protest again homeless, mandatory boxcar rides for homeless,

Shake fist at homeless, shipwreck homeless into the Bermuda triangle, drop pianos and anvils on homeless, blame homeless for 9/11, turn homeless head all the way around, boil homeless in molten lithium, throw homeless into a volcano

Etc

Hobos are one thing, the suburbanites that constantly defend them are another thing.

Ever been bothered or harassed by a homeless maniac in your urban neighborhood? Ever wanted to complain about the resident hobos that constantly irritate you and your neighbors? Ever wanted to say that maybe, just maybe, there will always be a section of society that chooses to partake in anti-social behaviors, not because of interconnected economic, social, and politic factors, but because they themselves are unrepentant psychopaths? God forbid you ever do that in front of the suburbanite that has been completely shielded from the problems hobos create and gleams reality through their computer screen.

I have never, ever, met someone living in an urban area that doesn't despise the homeless. On the contrary, it seems that every bright-eyed and bushy-tailed suburbanite takes immense pleasure in defending the rights of the drug addicts, serial rapists, and mentally deficient drifters that take over neighborhoods. Even though the suburbanite lives an hour's drive from the city center, somehow they are under the impression that they have more insight and say into the matters of the city than those that actually work and live there.

"You don't know his story! He's probably got PTSD or schizophrenia, it's not his fault!"

No, Optimistic Oscar, that's the guy that smokes crack outside the convenience store and tries to intimidate women into giving him money. You would know this if you lived here.

"That poor man! He's a victim of circumstance - if he was given a chance, he'd turn his life around!"

No, Sheltered Susan, that's the guy that shoots heroin in the alley behind my house, the same one that got banned from the soup kitchen for trying to molest kids. You would know this if you spent more than 1 day a month in the city.

Really and truly the suburbanites that not only excused, but defended, the actions of these homeless psychopaths irritated me to no end. A lot of the pro-homeless propaganda comes from people that have never meaningfully interacted with the homeless in their entire lives.

I recall a specific event in high school where my class had to go volunteer at a local soup kitchen. The premise of this field trip was that we'd learn empathy and feel compassionate towards those less fortunate than us. What really happened was we all learned that 95% (if not more) of the homeless are homeless for very good reason. My classmates and I left that soup kitchen thinking that the homeless deserved apathy and disgust, not pity. And, before you ask, yes, the teachers that planned this field trip were suburbanites.

“But…but…if they just had free housing they’d be able to turn their life around! We’re all just one paycheck away from being in their shoes!!!”

No, you retarded faggot. Most normal adults aren’t one paycheck away from living on the street because they’ve been smart enough to have savings and functional enough to have a steady work history and move beyond cashier monkey or burger flipper wagie jobs.

And you have to be either deliberately obtuse or genuinely stupid if you think giving street homeless a home will instantly solve their problems. These people on the streets have fried their brain with drugs and/or are severely mentally ill to the point they are unable to function. I’ve seen countless times what happens when you set these parasites up with housing, within months the place is trashed, the wiring stripped, the surrounding neighbors harassed and threatened. It’s incredibly childish to think giving them a home and expecting them to magically sort their shit out will take place because they have a roof over their head. They’re no better than feral animals.

 

[kawaiikat420]

They’re no better than feral animals.

No, you just don't get it. If we tax all the hard-working people with jobs even more, we can construct a homeless shelter and a "safe"-injection site near that local primary school!! Being surrounded by all those defenseless, vulnerable, innocent children will surely make the homel- I mean, the housing-challenged, understand how valuable they are to our society! I mean, if there are no housing-challenged people around, how will I feel morally-superior to those that refuse to help them?

That's how all the retarded suburbanites that defend homeless freaks sound.

 

[clever handle]

Hobos are one thing, the suburbanites that constantly defend them are another thing.

Yes, peoples' pragmatism about an issue often has everything to do with how adjacently they actually live to the problem. It's incredible how easily you can see the "I cannot stand the homeless" line drawn in terms of "do you live in downtown?" It's far easier to fantasize a romanticized version of something when you never have to see its ugly reality, but these people don't realize that their belief isn't victimless, and in fact, it's often an attack on their own allies.

Small PL, I did customer service in a very large metropolitan area, and we were constantly stuck between the troublemakers among the homeless and the firm boot of the suburbanites who believe that they're nothing but precious saints who can do no wrong, constantly buying them food, etc, and ensuring that they'd stay camped out in front of our place and harass other people. I refused service once to someone trying to buy them something, explained the situation, and in exchange got recorded in secret, turned into timeline slop to the tune of 10m views, and we got bombarded by review bombs making up complete lies and tabloid articles for months afterwards.

Mind you, this was me putting my foot down once after the better part of a decade wherein myself and my coworkers were constantly annoyed, threatened, robbed and literally assaulted while on the job. Every fucking week there would be a new incident, and so often we'd call the cops after someone broke our window or took a shit on our floor only to find out that the pussy suburbanite legislators in our area are so limp-wristed on this issue since they live nowhere near it that they couldn't detain these people for more than a day, and the same shitstains are back on our streets doing the exact same thing the next day.

You do not hate these tourist crusaders enough. They would rather call a literal minimum wage service worker a corpo and tread all over their supposed proletariat allies than dare to entertain the idea that these poor misunderstood angels are capable of doing wrong.

 

[Meat Target]

I'm in suburbia, and have noticed more and more panhandlers on the street corners. I used to buy them a bag of apples or something, but not anymore. Once or twice you might have to beg, but when I see you there regularly, I know you're lying.

I don't think so. Hobos (in America) are homeless people who travel, work, give to the community they're in, and follow a strict code of conduct.

An ethical code was created by Tourist Union #63 during its 1889 National Hobo Convention in St. Louis Missouri.

This is the most St. Louis sentence of tongue or pen.

Finally this executive order was signed. The people who are bitching about this are the same people who live in gated communities and have signs that read "In this house we support.." signs.

Had a buddy who experienced a real short stint of homelessness who bounced back and absolutely hated the professional homeless he'd encountered. Had this idea of lacing cigarettes with lethal amounts of nicotine then leaving them around the camps for the bums to find. Pretty solid idea on paper.

Of course nowadays you have cameras everywhere so they'd catch ya after you killed a few dozen bums. Guess you could try using a drone to fly over the camps and drop laced cigarettes from above?

I understand where that idea came from. Dealing with them constantly would give me that attitude too, and I really dealt with them in university. Nothing like having one on the bus (that I never took again) screaming at the top of his lungs and threatening to hurt everyone, and nothing was done about it. The countless stories that I hear about how stores, restaurants, and fast food places locking their bathrooms because some vagrant gets in there, smearing shit and piss everywhere before overdosing left me with much less sympathy. I know it's not ideal, but I have developed thoughts if they're just going to die, why not let them at this point? They aren't grateful for help and often attack the people who save them in the first place.
