homeless and upscale

Subject: Homeless and upscale

Mayor goodness knows what next?

There is a perceptual gulf here, really, displayed by your perfunctory

essay in the St Pete Times, mercy, a listing of local resource organizations, and advise to not give money to the homeless?

Of course, you don't care about the trillion dollar war in Iraq, your base is upscale, and the beat goes on.

You're one of them, and we need a sea change, small monies with high investment return , heretofore shunned by the elitist model.

Abbé Pierre, 94, French Priest Who Aided the Homeless, Dies

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/23/world ... ref=europe
He expanded his “uprising of goodness” to more than 50 countries on four continents, and to issues from water quality to contemporary slavery, through what became Emmaus International. The Bible says that it was on the road to Emmaus that the risen Jesus met his disciples.
homeless terrifies me these days
Not sure I can endure that again
I tell myself that I could go back to driving
A truck is a roof over my head
"18 wheels singing home sweet home"

bless that Paris Priest
bless you for caring

if the homeless were responsible with their money they wouldn't need to beg. if they knew how to keep a house they wouldn'ta lost theirs.

therefore, you shouldn't give money to the homeless. they are not capable of handling it.

Bombs Not food. We need a troop SURGE!
