Reply #3: I live in Dallas

And actually know a couple homeless people, who choose to be homeless and are true crack heads. They panhandle at a gas station across from a bar I go to, and have been staying at a abandoned building, with about 15 other people. This is a guy/girl homeless couple.

The girl used to be fairly decent looking, had a job, took care of her kid, etc., 5 years ago. That's before the crack kicked in. Now they are both a mess but say they are perfectly happy.

Just wanting to point out that all homeless people are not some poor soul who lost his/her job, house, and everything else and just need a hand up. Most of the ones I have come into contact with (at least in the Metroplex) are for the most part people who choose smoking the glass dick rather than being a productive citizen.
