To the people making negative comments about other human beings they DO NOT KNOW: most of them could walk in your shoes til they fell apart, an you couldn't even tie the laces on theirs. Your lack of understanding, perception, knowledge, experience, and objectivity concerning these people is a testament to your wilfull ignorance and bigotry. It's not them you are really mad at, you are mad at yourself because you are so ugly inside while your exterior is a total sham of pretend humanity.

Music was unnecessary.

What is this, some wanna-be news channel? Get rid of the tacky music, get a decent camera, and forget the overly dramatic shots of you saying how bad it is to be homeless..

Cleveland, Ohio? I always knew it to be horrible.  I had to leave the State, then the country, decades ago. I found Clevelanders to be the worst. The nastiest. It just seemed as though evil indifference was in the air. I got the crap beaten out of me year after year and left when I was 18, never to return, no one protected me from my pill popping alcoholic parents. He was trained in the subprime market, this guy has no luck! Where is he now? Any update possible?

@warlordgorgutz1 and yes, some of them are a risk to those around them, but the truth of the matter is that most people who suffer from disorders are harmless. they are messed up enough to keep them from living a normal life but not so much to the point of hostility or violence. I understand your stand point, i really do, but there must be more then biggotry and discrimination.

[warlordgorgutz1]

@EugeneWanderer No, they should be in a facility that can harbour and look after them properly. Do you think it's right or even safe to have 'crazies' on the streets? Everyone DESERVES a fair life, equal treatment, etc. but not everyone is CAPABLE of being able to support that life themselves. Sometimes you should stop trying to be nice, caring and selfless, and start being practical and realistic.

@warlordgorgutz1 Over 30% of the homeless in America suffer from a mental disorder of some sort, should they also be up every day looking for the job they cant work or keep?
