"Homeless Veteran" in the Lowe's Parking lot.

[kidicarus13]

Helpful hint. There are no homeless veterans. And if there are then they are likely pieces of shit that you wouldn?t want to help out anyways.

Beggars don?t get my money or my sympathy regardless of what their bullshit sign says.

Free handouts for those who aren?t putting forth an effort to better themselves is one of many things that are wrong with society today.

Hey, that's not very woke of you.

The VA can & will fuck you over. Been there, done that. Not to mention the 4500 veterans surgically lobotomized by the VA after World War II. I have personally seen some of the VA's victims, and it is shocking. I feel sorry for any veteran that falls through the cracks. I had to raise a shit storm to get the VA elevated to a cabinet position. Not to mention all the shit I had to go through to get a Space Force legislated.

There is a reason the guy is begging in the Lowes parking lot instead of getting actual care at VA. Either a scammer or druggie, and likely to be both.


I don't care what a beggar claims, they get nothing. Props like dogs, musical instruments, or children just piss me off even more.

I'll admit to having a soft spot for the dogs of homeless people. I've probably pissed off a few because I see them with dogs on 16th Street, and I'll head into the Walgreens or 7-11 and buy a box of Milkbones to give them instead of cash or human food.

A buddy who works for a Sheriff's office told me that often times the homeless have pets as a way to dissuade the cops from arresting them. Evidently dealing with their pets is just a huge hassle, and the homeless people know it.

Plus those dogs are suffering zero. Dogs don't care if they live in a house or not.

The real homeless are probably sharing the milk bones.
Just sayin'

Zero f's given about transients now. After 64 the # of them has imploded by an order of magnitude of probably 600-700% in some areas. I don't give a shit what their sign is, when they're addicted to everything under the sun, I'm not paying for it. Whether or not they were Chuck Norris on Omaha Beach, I'm still not paying for their f'n fix.

SOrry to break this to you rich suburb/rural area folks , but I do have many experiences working part time night/grave at a gas station near bad neighborhood.
I worked at intersection of Long Beach Blvd and Compton blvd. about 19 years ago.

homeless daily process:
There are so many panhandlers that people who goes get gas will get hit on by many homeless people.
There is always homeless boss. They station people at this and that corner of intersection and ask for money.
Then they gather up at certain hours to see how much they got. Then they need to convert the coins into a bill, because drug dealers supposedly do not accept coins as their trade currency. Just bills.
The homeless boss negotiate crack, meth, or whatever their preferred drug with glass rose (pipe), brillo, lighters, etc.
They smoke crack somewhere and disappear for about 6 hours.
Then they come out with leftover money to buy those cheap 30 to 50 cent chips and drink for their post drugged up meal.

REPEAT EVERYDAY.



We got out of this around 2006, and I guess new guy shut it down or sold it by looking at the fences all around it. It use to be Shell gas station when we were doing it.
This gas station is so well known place (large st location, homeless, and so many thugs) that even people near Torrance, Long Beach, Cerritos, and even Buena Park knows this gas station.

This neighborhood is SO BAD that, even hoodlum or homie looking guys even told me that they are saving up money to get the F out of this F hell hole.

In situation like that the community forms a "star chamber".
