I'd like...

humm what would I like? So many choices so little time to try them all. Ever thought to your self that picky people are difficult, both with food and well everything..."ppsssst, cause their picky" Well at least they know what they want. I myself am not a picky person when it comes to allot of things, Opinionated, yes picky, no. I order my steak medium because I don't care if it comes out under done or over done, hell right in the middle is fine too just bring me cooked meat! Hell I eat sushi it doesn't even have to be cooked. I have no idea where any of that came from, disregard. Today’s Topic “Sex Chop Shops and The Plastic Surgeons That Run Them.”

So I'm bumpin along this morning reading a little here and a little there. I came across this. The column seemed to stray off from the topic a couple times, I think it ended up with like comic books or something. Anyway I'm talking about the first part of this column, where someone gives a homeless person a buck. This sparks the debate of should or shouldn't you give them money? I've heard the arguments on both sides. I'm not sure which is the best. I mean I can totally understand the pressures of today making you want to just shut down. But I can also understand not being an enabler. I've never been called the sensitive type, "Yeah boo fucking hoo you have a problem." Unfortunately like I said I understand the pressures of today making you just want to throw up your hands and quit. So that tends to make it hard for me to just turn a blind eye. I still don't give them money mind you I don't think anybody deserve something they didn't work for. The obvious exception to this rule is a child, I've found I've either become softer, or more patient towards children over the past couple years. Don't get me wrong I still don't want any of the little rug rats of my own. But I can deal with one for more than an hour or two now days with out yanking my hair out.

Back to the subject at hand, what’s the most humane way of handling this. I haven't a freakin clue I can tell you the pros and cons of each I can tell you the effect of each but I can't even tell you in my mind which is the right course of action. Normally the path is clear once I start breaking down pros and cons along with cause and effect. This'un dun got me stump'd. The folx need help that’s for sure, and as much as I hate to admit it society should be the one to give them a helping hand and back up on the horse in which they fell. If they are unable to get back up on the horse in which they fell they need to be put some place warm and safe. The problem is determining if they can get back up on the horse of if they even want too. If they don't want too but are able, take them to the middle of no where and drop them off, then forget them. I have no use for someone who is unwilling to help them selves in some way shape or form. Hell I wouldn't even have a problem doing it. Let them see what happens when the society they gave up on drops them. It's only fair, "Here ya go, fend for your self." Don't get me wrong I'm not saying pick up every sick bum and drive him to the woods and set'em free. I'm saying take the ones that aren’t sick, & broken. The Sick, & Broken give'em a chance to heal. Then give them a shot at doing something productive teach'em a trade. If they as people aren’t fixable, well find some warm, and fuzzy place to stick them other than the side of the road. If I can pay for Bertha and her 14 kids, I don't mind paying for Henry who can't get along on his own. Yeah I know, the trouble is figuring out which can, which can't, and which don't want too. I don't have an answer to this one.

All in all I think something has to be done and it is society's responsibility, Hell half the time they say they wouldn't be there if given half a chance....fuck it give'em half a chance and see what happens. If I had the financial means I'd like to try and see what happens, I also think that’s the wrong mind set for a program like that. It probably shouldn't be an experiment, I'd say it needs someone a tad more companionate than myself. I'd be willing to help though.

I guess what I'm tryin to say is, everybody needs a hand up from time to time. What exactly is a hand up and what exactly is holding them down. *shrug*

Tomorrow's Topic "Hungry Hungry Hippo." That is all.

Not that this has anything to do with anything I posted today I just thought it was F'n hullarious! I just thought everybody should see it.
