Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed a bill into law on Monday that strengthens the rights of homeowners against squatters who illegally occupy their property.
How about getting people the help they need to deal with those issues that you mentioned instead of throwing them in a cage and making it harder for them to be a productive member of society?
@LookBehindYouNowAndThen Like rehab, job training, or mental health services for the homeless? I could definitely get on board with something like that.
They’re also a white supremicist who wrote an article on their site called Whites Going Their Own Way. (Use archive.org if you dive in yourself so that you’re not giving them ad revenue.)
Shocking that they’ve found a home in this community.
I just shared a post with an IRL friend about a dude who was homeless and on #heroin and once he got clean, he got a #ComputerScience degree with a 4.0 GPA.
@amerika@LookBehindYouNowAndThen I remember watching #KattWilliams’ appearance on #BillMaher’s podcast #ClubRandom, where he talked about the time when he was homeless, and how almost all the other homeless people around him were basically normal people who got hooked in drugs and lost everything. This convinced him to not do drugs.

People who are broken do not change.
What a smart thought-terminating cliche.
You have so much to teach us.
@LookBehindYouNowAndThen
lol
I mean that’s just factually wrong but ok
@Woozythebear
You need to have a really good poop.

Thanks for sharing.
For those that don’t know, Voyager (a great Lemmy client), gives a special icon for new users under 30 day, with a day counter.
It’s useful to identify brand new accounts.
More often then not, they are disingenuous.
For those that don’t use Voyager, it is helpful to comment identifying them as such, so others are more wary.
Have a great day!
@amerika @LookBehindYouNowAndThen They never ever change? There’s no way that’s true.

Anecdotal evidence is dubious, and you probably want to follow over time.
Then there is the question: was he broken, or just having a bad time in the short term?

Maybe this dude was such a man.

That must have been quite a shock, but it’s not against conventional wisdom.
People on addictive drugs have their lives collapse and end up living under a bridge.
This is why we used to call the homeless “winos,” because they were basically sad broken alcoholics.
