| Unfortunately, the dysfunctional homeless just cause too much destruction and mystery for viable "in community" solutions. A completely closed off building housing vast numbers the most antisocial homeless in ruthless structured order is the only solution assuming they have something cons... |

| I suspect that you might be confusing the majority of homeless people in general with the majority of the most visibly homeless. Perhaps, I am specifically talking about the most destructive and disruptive ones, the people who as I've previously said are clearly not just ordinary folks who were for... |

| How many of them have you spoken with who’ve told you being homeless is an easy life and they choose it over stable housing? My guess is Zero and also that if anyone said that to you they were being sarcastic or lying. Being homeless is a struggle, not an easy life of convenience nor luxury. Wtf St... |

Possibly nothing for the most dysfunctional homeless other than an asylum of some sort. For others who did live a stable life then the prospects are considerably better. |

| Depends. To some it actually is a choice by the actions take to end up on the streets. The reality is, walk down any city centre and you'll quickly see why many don't have a roof over their head. Jobs can obviously be lost sometimes but I honestly don't see many people who live on the streets becau... |

| It gets me how many unused spaces you see. Abandoned buildings that if you point them out to others, you'll typically get the response 'Huh, I never noticed that building before'. I see this with old schools that haven't been schools for quite some time. The ones with either a boarded up entrance o... |

| One of my friends uses the term "petticoat tyranny" to describe the way they do things like tell us to get them a glass of Pepsi when they're sitting on the coach. If I want a glass of Pepsi, I have to get it myself. Why does she have to have someone bring it to her? Or if we're upstairs,... |

| As people get older the risks of getting married can increase for many. When someone is young they still have their plenty of time to build a life with a partner but as they get older things other than "love" can get in the way. To old to have kids, financial mismatching making it risky, j... |

| "The left" is a complex thing (but then all things are). I'm assuming Dox is using it to refer to far-left people who are outside or on the fringes of mainstream politics. I think it's fair to say that there are lots of apologiae for Hamas from these groups. I think a lot of big leftist s... |

| Autistics vary a lot. One can struggle to make it to the local shop, book a hotel room, get insurance and so on but another can happily run a massive corporation, control others around them or even be thoroughly nasty criminals. |

Well it all seems to be escalating quickly.
Hamas is still obviously in the wrong. I don't know the ins an outs of the political dynamics in that area over the years and I'm not going to pretend I do but if Israel is genuinely showing years of animosity towards Hamas, I'm not surprised. |
