no. my friends all know that when there's a dude on the street who asks, i'm gonna stop and give him whatever change is in my pocket, and wish him well. people say shit like 'they're just gonna use it on [intoxicant]'. if that's the case, i have no problem with it. if i was sleeping on the street, i'd probably be numbing myself, too. i do it already. i can't imagine what it'd be like if i were born into different circumstances. i did nothing to deserve what i have, and if i wasn't born into the middle class in the USA, i'd be dead.
fuck people who degrade other human beings like that. it's one thing to teach someone a lesson if they wrong you, it's something completely different to refuse to recognize the humanity of someone just because of the life they were handed- or even the life they 'choose', for the idiots who use that argument.
it's just not cool to treat people like shit without reason, especially when they're down on their luck.
