Good one, I volunteer twice a month at a "feed the homeless" thing in Boulder and I thought I would come to understand them more and have more compassion for them. Wrong Boulder Bums really make me dislike the homeless

I hear you. The Boulder bums are pushy and greedy SOBs. I have no compassion for them.

Calling them "homeless" makes about as much sense as referring to someone in the country illegally as "undocumented". If you gave them a "home", it wouldn't come close to solving their real issues.

I thought about being homeless once.

If suddenly all my obligations (housepayment, child support, phone bill, gas, electric, incessant relatives calling, no boss breathing down your neck, no traffic daily to and from work. No work for that matter.) disappeared, sounds like a pretty good gig.

All you have to worry about is getting enough food and water and warmth to survive... that is all.

Same here. Working in a hospital just made me even more annoyed with them.

The Boulder bums are

-the best dressed bums I've ever encountered! I've had bums panhandle me while looking like they just walked out of REI with all the latest Gore-Tex on. I've lived in a few other towns with fancy-clad homeless but this town is ridiculous.

One of our tenants from our Aurora property was seen panhandling in Boulder.

Coalition for the Homeless pays his rent. Sure has made me less likely to give anyone money. I want free rent.
