Reply #28: No, I'll just allow you to heap abuse on me on an anonymous chat board [View All]

Just because I realize that your experience shapes your viewpoint, just as my experience shapes mine. Nor am I going to ask you to prove anything, including a negative, because having been homeless, I've been in your shoes before, OK.

Don't fucking make assumptions about how I'm going to react to you, nor about how I think on certain topics. You do know what ass u me means don't you. You hate having to prove yourself to others, please extend the same sort of courtesy to others, OK.

As far as your contention goes, rather than going with sources that you haven't linked to I think that I'll go with more authoritative sources, like the NIH <http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pubmed&pubmedid=15117708>
Or you can check out the many other peer reviewed sources that support my viewpoint
<http://wch.uhs.wisc.edu/13-Eval/Tools/PDF-Documents/Homeless%20and%20%20SubstanceAbuse.pdf.>

But whatever you do, please don't ass u me what I'm going to do, or how I'm going to react to you. If you're going to take this sort of level-headed adult discussion so personally that you feel the need to excoriate somebody who wasn't even addressing you personally, then perhaps you should take a break. Remember, I've been homeless, I help the homeless. That doesn't mean that I willfully blind myself to the facts concerning the homeless population. Nor do I ass u me anything about anybody, homeless or not. I find such assumptions rude and counterproductive.

Next time think and empathize before posting, OK. You don't know what I'm thinking, nor how I will react.
