In reply to the discussion: LISTEN: Sotomayor asks if unhoused people should 'kill themselves' if they have no place to sleep [View all]byronius
(7,402 posts)8. I was homeless as a young man.
I had a support structure, though, and a decent upbringing.
The shame these sharks wish to inflict says more about them than the homeless.
I lived in an old van in a friends back yard for a year, working until I could find my own place and go back to college. I graduated, got married, took over a small business in trouble and raised two kids an attorney and a math teacher but I know how hard it was, and how lucky I was to make it over that period.
I dont respect Americans who advocate cruelty. And the GOP is immoral and quite evil.

Sure! Just like when Agolf Shitler wanted to outlaw Covid-19 testing to make the numbers better.

I thought this was about a city ordinance and not a state law. It's City of Grants Pass vs Johnson.

One time a Colorado congressman said that old people have an obligation to die.
