You have to submit to a criminal record background check to rent an apartment?? Maybe to get a subsidized one, you guys telling me that is a part of the applying for a rental apartment? How does the building know you are a felon? If that really is true, rent a basement apartment from a private citizen. All those black guys seem to get out and move right back into the projects, how do they know how to manipulate system but this guy can't? Also having a record means you can't get certain jobs, that is true, but you can still work a hell of a lot of jobs. The guy in the kitchen at my local pub did time for murder, since there is nothing for him to steal in the kitchen no one cares. Everyone likes him, I smoke joints with him in the parking lot. If you became a bum after your prison time it's at least partially your fault. All sorts of felons get out and fully repair their lives. This guy has the same mantra I hear from all these guys, I tried once or twice and it didn't work so I gave up. I don't have an address so no one will hire me, I give up. It's totally impossible so I quit trying. They all have some "poor me" story, I think it should be illegal to be homeless and he should be arrested and do 30 days in a work camp for being a bum. Bet he'd find a job and room to rent then. Stop enabling these fucking losers by giving them money or listening to their bullshit. I cannot stand the homeless. If you are "mentally ill" that is another excuse, that is just someone who refused to take their meds and became un-housable. Addiction is a choice too, I have no patience with the homeless lifestyle choice. I should be able to go anywhere and not be at risk for stepping on a needle or hobo feces, I take pictures of graffiti so I go under bridges that normal people do not go. Trust me hobo camps are disgusting public health hazards that should be bulldozed. Every day I get a little less liberal, and it's shit like this that does it. I think whatever drug he got caught for should be legal, but I am pretty sure he would have ended up in prison for something else anyway.

I enjoy a good homeless bashing as much as the next person, but making homelessness illegal? Forced labor camps? Da fuck man, sounds like you need some help yourself.

I guess cuz most people are oblivious unappreciative assholes and homeless people can actually appreciate conversation because they don't have to rush off to some bullshit or another and (usually) have little reason to be judgemental.

:face palm: OMG Yes, apartments check your criminal history, ever had one? I'm a non violent convicted marijuana felon in a skilled trades with 20 plus years experience and I can't get a hand up, but a fucking a baby raper can? I had to work under the table my whole adult life because I grew a plant, only criminal charge, ever. I take care of me and mine just fine, but if I were not known for my work I would have been fucked coming out of jail. You seem like an entitled asshole saying those things man. Dick

A person's past never gets put in the past because the Internet makes it possible for anybody to check anybody else's entire history. It's part of the dystopia.
I really feel for people with drug charges. I also think most sexual predator charges are bullshit as well. A drunk dude pisses in a alley and picks up some kind of sexual deviant label.

Ehh, he kind of is skirting the real issue, which is that he's hooked on meth. Lots of homeless are like this and will put on a big front like it is entirely societies fault, but it's really mostly the meth.
I'm not saying prohibition isn't behind his troubles, but it's easy to be all like "well nobody even pays attention to me, I'm homeless," when you're homeless. When this methhead was a contractor with a wife and a house I doubt he spent his spare time volunteering in soup kitchens.

I agree. There's two sides to this story.

I hate the ones that walk out to traffic, and those ones always seem to have a bad limp and move out of the way really slow when the light changes. Other than that I am courteous, but never really carry spange. It's funny, because my car is full of change, but I will never help homeless in the literal street. That is for taxpayers with cars, sorry I know that's harsh but it's just true. I don't want to get sued when I run over their other leg.

Uhhh YES you have to submit a criminal record to be eligible to rent an apartment.
You talk about how much you hate the homeless, but the reality is you are probably only a few paychecks away from being homeless yourself, just watch, one day you might lose your job or the economy might tank, and your family might be dead or unable to help you, and when that happens you can easily face homelessness.
Illegal to be homeless, what an asinine idea. So you think the idea of being in debt for 20 years to own a piece of property is freedom?
It's funny, with all the money society spends on jailing and criminalizing the homeless, you could probably end up covering free housing for them, or building more sharps disposal containers around the city. If the city actually invested in services like that, there wouldn't be problems such as used needles on the floor.

Yeah. It's easy as shit. A few medical expenses, lose a job, no one to turn to, it's breathing down a lot of people's neck. Mine, too.
