Yeah, fuck all the people that need to use public transit!
You’re right, I use public transit and if someone were to be sleeping on the bench while I was waiting for the bus it would just ruin my entire life forever in every possible way, unless I just got the fuck over it and went on with my day or something, but I don’t think that’s an option.
tell me, do you house any homeless people?
Fuck all the way off. Way to move the goalpost from letting people use benches to sleep to demanding people give up their homes for others. You’re the exact kind of piece of shit I had clocked you for, thanks for proving my point.
Have you ever volunteered for a food bank or done any mental health outreach for homeless people?
I have invited homeless on my street to use my home to bathe when needed, I have served them food both in food pantries and in the street, and I have treated them as citizens of my neighborhood who became interesting friends.
So, fuck yourself all the way off, troll
No you fucking have not.
But if every day & all night long, people are sleeping on that bench so it can never be used for its intended purpose of paying customers waiting-for-bus, that’s where the problem lies.
Sleeping on benches is apparently such a huge problem that many public places have no seating options available anywhere anymore. I recall traveling daily through the DC Metro, brutalist concrete architecture everywhere, on my feet all day, and it was even illegal to sit on the ground to rest my throbbing legs for 30 seconds. I was even sitting on a BALL that I had, and Metro employee comes up to me and tells me “NO SITTING ALLOWED. KEEP MOVING.” 🤬
I fucking despise [insert whatever nouns to suit the topic].
So, the authorities not allowing anyone at all to sit or rest and removing all of the public seating is to be blamed on unhoused people? The people actively causing you to not be allowed to sit and rest, for even a moment, are the unhoused, they’re the ones who took that from you?
No, my second paragraph was simply expressing anger at the fact there’s nowhere to sit anymore. Blaming it on authorities for removing all seats, and even the right to sit.
Thanks for the clarification, I apologize for being crass.
