Boo ******* hoo. These assholes are mostly physically capable of working, but would rather panhandle. They have made NYC a mess again.
And there is nothing wrong with pointing out the fact some asshole sleeping on the street can afford a freaking high end cell phone.
Another example of ignorance, bigotry and f
roideur (i.e. haughty aloofness and cold superiority).
There are plenty of services and shelters available to people like this.
Again, HE HAS A ******* CELL PHONE!!!!
He's a schizophrenic whose parents have given him a cellphone to keep in touch. There's a million and one different, valid, reasons a person might have a phone and not a home.
So why don't his parent's commit him?
Oh wait we did away with commitments because it was cruel, so it's better they stay on the street, pollute our sidewalks, and be potential threats.
