My pity for the homeless ran out when I moved here. Homeless people from other states actually travel to be homeless here. You kind of lose your compassion after you have to clean up massive amounts of junkie shit out of your doorway. (Especially when the tweakers upstairs were so fucked up they actually stepped in it and tracked it inside.) And you get asked for money every five steps.

Fucking tweakers. Fucking junkies. Fucking people.

Actually if you look at the demographics of the homeless, the overwhelming majority of them have some form of mental illness.  The problem of homelessness is a very serious one ... and before you get too angry at the individuals you may want to take a look at our piss poor social system.  I just finished reading a book called "Rachael and Her Children".  Written by a sociologist, it is a case study of the fastest growing population among the homeless... single moms and their kids.  It really is a sad commentary on the way we take take of our marginal populations.  Next time you have to step over their "junkie shit", you might try to hear their stories.

You are fully welcome to come over to 16th and Capp in San Francisco and hear their stories yourself.

(No, this is not where I live anymore.)

The place might look familiar. It was on two separate episodes of COPS.

Or, you could always try the Tenderloin, or UN Plaza, or pretty much anywhere in this city.

I'm not saying that I hate homeless people. I'm jaded about it. But at least I have the decency to look them in the eye and acknowledge them when I tell them that I'm not going to give them any money.

Definitely better than my friend when he is drunk. He screams at them and demands a resume when they ask for change. I'm like "Damn, Bill. Even I don't have a resume with me."

I will say that I always hated those fucking hypocrites who said that they didn't want to give a homeless person money because they might spend it on drugs or alcohol. The way I see it, once you give them money, it's their money and they can do whatever the fuck they want with it.

I am most certainly dead set against arming the homeless. I would prefer the people I make fun of be unarmed.


Oh. i dont mean to arm the homeless. i mean i would want to shoot Dr Phil. in order to do that i would need to buy a gun. i can only do that in the US. Perhaps everything fun is not good for me.

I was in Brighton once with my brother and some homeless guys were sitting around NOT begging, they were just grouped in keeping each other sane, anyways we stopped to shoot the breeze with them and find out a little of what took them to the streets, it was really sad, most had been kicked out of home because they were unruly teens!! A couple of  the girls had left home because they were being abused by step dad or being beaten, to them a life on the street was better than that! So we gave them a pack of cigarettes and they said we were about the only people who ever wantyed to know their story, the rest just look at them like their scum, in a selfish way i felt goosd about myself for having just listened to them....

Later on there was this old guy who had clearly been on the bottle, he said he was well hungry and hadn't eaten in days, i went across to McDonlads and bought him virtually everything they sell & took it back to him, he looked at me like I was mental, he didn't want that, he wanted money...i was enraged, so I waked back to the 1st group and gave them the food, they were a litte upset because they didn't want charity, it took some persuading to get them to take it, in the end they did cos I threw the line that it'd make me feel better about myself, I made homeless ppl feel guilty into taking food from me???

Always remember to walk a mile in a man's shoes before judging him.

We're told the homeless are mostly mentally ill. In fact, the MI are less than 1/4 of the homeless population.

Many of the homeless are actually employed (working poor)

I gave up on tv about a year ago, tried to watch some the other day and STILL couldn't find a single genuine original thought there, so I guess I'm not missing much.

Yeah, but there were some great quotes in "Magnum Force" (starring Clint Eastwood). I saw it on TV last night. I guess there's an exception to just about every rule.

You wouldn't believe how many people have free time during the day over here. I'm amazed that anyone in San Francisco works. When I'm not in class and have a day off, I see people in cafes and hanging out and doing whatever.

Ah, the good ol' days!

Montel did a show for TBS survivors and admitted doing wrong in sending his own child away, read the press release from WWASPS with the most sarcastic tone you could expect out of him, and then got visibly pissed off.

Being an ex marine, I'd really like to see him do another show and get some of the WWASPS fat cats on stage and let them try to pull a fast one on him.

I don't know about OPRAH doing jack shit, but considering shes responsible for harking STRAIGHT back in the day, AND shes the reason Dr. Phil puts his cabbage patch kid with an eagle's nest and a gay moustache face on TV so much now, I think shes a fat stupid bitch with too much popularity (approaching a cult of personality here) who needs to be taken as what she is - A FUCKING TV PERSONALITY!

Anyone going to her or anyone riding her coat tails for advice about a god damn thing except the book of the month needs to get slapped.

The only good thing about Oprah is that she's there... so people like Debra Wilson from MadTV can do incredibly funny, flawless impressions of her.


"That's why I'm Opraaaaaaaahhh."

There was a skit where Wilson was playing Oprah and Michael McDonald was playing Dr. Phil, and they just drop everything and start making out. Laughed my ass off.

When she turned into a monster and killed everyone in the audience and Dr. Phil just goes "not again... not again dammit" I was rolling  :rofl:

um...
dr phil sends kids to program all the time.
not only that...but he had a kid KIDNAPPED and FORCED to appear on his show
.  his mother gave degrading details(true or not) of the boys personal life on NETWORK TV, they had a montage of all the things the boy suposedly did, the boy is sitting there horrified, ashamed desperate.
. Dr Phil denounces him as a drug addict and sick. The audience bursts into bloodthirsty applause. The kid tries to make an escape. The abducters-"escorts" restrain him. "now...we dont want to have to hand cuff you". The audience cheers
Dr Phill announces you are going to rehab The boy tries to fight back.."YOu cant do this to me". Dr Phil says no I cant , but your parents can. MOM do you think your son needs to be somewhere he can get help?"
The Mom is positively drooling with stimulation of being the hero/victim finnally standing up to her son. The boy is led away in handcuffs. The audience hollers in solidarity

Now , how exactly do you justify kidnapping a human being and forcing them to be on a reality TV show???...where you are debased and labeled in front of every human being you ever knew?
I

Can someonw say MAJOR LAWSUIT?!!?? If someone can only reach this kid.....he could really wreck some vengence. Like 10s of millions in vengence
