RE: When Feeding the Homeless is Illegal, Feeding the Homeless is the Honorable Option!

There is no such thing as a pest.

Just as we feed upon the lives of animals and plants, others may feed upon us.
The circle of life does not have an ending point. It simply spirals upwards.

What is depressing to you is another person's chance to help someone.

You are amazing, following now

i think you've misunderstood me, I am glad there are helping hands out there. What I don't agree with is some people get too used to getting hand outs and they don't want to change. I like to help people who help themselves, I never said there was anything wrong helping others. It;s the picture you painted for me earlier that made me depressed. It was just the hopelessness of what you've said that made me depressed.

Life is depressing, and I can't say I'm all that happy about the state of things either.

But remember that these people are fighting uphill against oppressive governments, cruel people, and institutions that help them only enough that they join the cult, be it religious or government, or some other societal movement.

The only way to truly help people is to offer them education, and if that does not work, love. Just love. Nothing else is necessary except love, although giving them food, clothing, and knowledge is also quite lovely.
