@freemo the veteran makes me double angry. Double over the knowledge that when we invested in people 14 + years ago in the Uk there were a rarity, now 1000s even in middle sized cities.
@DaveFernig I dont have any more sympathy for a veteran than I do any other homeless person. Suffering is suffering to me and equally worth addressing.
But there is somthing to be said for the government abusing these people and throwing them aside. As a citizen we are somewhat responsible for our government and that makes us more individually liable in a sense for voting people in that would treat people that way.
@freemo absolutely- it is on the citizen, too many close their eyes as they step over the body huddled on the pavement and refuse to acknowledge the fact that that person is as much a human as anyone else.
@DaveFernig Yup, agreed... but in the case of veterans the problem started from before they ever made it to homeless status. The military often is what made them that way.
@DaveFernig Both fair points, esp. the veteran one.
