Red face Do homeless people deserve iPhones?

...or any modern luxury that the rest of us are privy to, for that matter?

Or is this guy a jealous iPhone geek, a disapproving Android nerd, or just downright racist?
Spotted on my NextDoor news feed today:

If you give money to a panhandler (I don't), who are you to say how they spend it?

Still chortling away at the intense description.






Other: vacant stare.

its diquesuckerish to assume there is any difference between drug dependence (alcohol) and an iphone.

we learned about dopamine destroyers and dopamine programmers a long time ago from Dr. Sam Hydiccus the 2358th please act accordingly and DELETE this UNNECESSARY thread

wish i was being facetious in one of those sentences somewhere, but nope every word is meant to be taken seriously and acted upon.


Case in point, have you ever taken someones cocaine away or possibly have been found to be withholding it? The reaction is the exact same if you take their phone away. how are you going to judge which vices they use? vice use and vice balance are every part of being American.

I semi-cringe internally every time somebody tells me "oh I have an Iphone".

It's his money.

Support local homeless charities if you want the homeless to be given a decent breakfast, assistance in finding work/housing and learning key day to day skills for household budgeting, counselling and so on.
