Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed a bill into law on Monday that strengthens the rights of homeowners against squatters who illegally occupy their property.
@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.

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.
