  • I think it's unfortunate that they feel the need to make this into a political statement. They're getting free food, which is fine by itself, but they're speaking badly about the wastefulness of the supermarkets... the very waste that is keeping them fed.

  • Freegans are just people who don't want to work a proper job, simple as.
