My Recent Experience with a Transient

I was wondering just now if the guy is still alive. It wouldn't suprise me at all if he wasn't. It's a shame, there probably isn't a single person who will miss him when he's gone, and not a single person who will genuinely care.

Why is it necessary for there to be homeless people when there are people in this world who have more money than they will ever need? I'm all for someone being rewarded for working hard, and being punished for not, but why is there such a huge gap? Is it really necessary for people to starve to death when there are people who could easily feed them without even putting a dent in their budget?

Call me a communist if you will.

I just gave change to a guy on Friday that had a sign reading "Down but not out"

When I was 18, I went to 7-eleven to get some munchies and a pop with my friends. There was this homeless guy outside that didn't say anything to us when we went in but he asked when we went outside. I gave him a buck and he went inside. I had this empty pop that I put on my roof cause I didn't want to get in trouble for littering. Well the transient saw the pop on my roof and ran after me scream about it... I loled for a few days.

Downtown, there are homeless guys EVERYWHERE. (KC) However, in my city (Liberty), there is 1 very popular homeless guy. Almost everybody knows him, and almost everybody I have talked to has given him money. Everytime I see him i give him money, sometimes I give him 5 bucks. He's a funny guy, and mentally ill however he does know where he is going and what he's doing. We know eachother seeing as I have lived here my whole life, and everytime me or my friends give him money we ask him "What did you do to your wife last night?" and he says "errmm i fucked her good i fucked her hard", then we give him the money.

Its not mean or cruel or anything, he is a popular dude. Probably one of the most well-known guys in my city to be honest LOL. I guess he used to have a ton of money and played russian roulette and shot himself in the head but didn't die. So now he roams the streets. I have never seen him pass out somewhere, which makes me believe he actually has a house or a place to sleep. He's a pretty amusing guy, but just doesn't have a whole lot. Or if he does have a whole lot, he's still mentally ill. I'm sure he eats well most of the time(he's kinda fat).

However, downtown, completly different story.
