iIn no way, do I actually claim to be a "Street kid", as this video describes to be all of people who hang out on Haight Street. However, I have hung out with a good amount of people that come here, as braindrum1 put it, "because it's fun", not because they just want to get fucked up on the street for the rest of their life. There have been many enjoyable instances in which I was under the influence of jack shit, but I still the conversation was enjoyable,and the drum circle was great.

@Darrylizer1 When I was 19, I drove across country, got dropped off in Salt Lake City, and hitchhiked the rest of the way to San Francisco. I hung on the Haight, went to JGB shows at the Warfield, swung some herb when I was flat broke, and spare changed when needed. I'm 36, have a beautiful home in CT, married, 2 kids and a great job. Me hanging out on the Haight helped shape me to who I am today. Not all of the kids on the Haight are there for survival....they're there because it is fun...

an iphone that a grandma bought 4 their grandkid is prolly the only way 2 wake them ^ in the morning 2 not get picked ^ by pigs n 2 remember wat it use 2 b like when they actually had a home. ppl who r on the street, yeah, i'll agree w/you 2 a certain extent, left on they're own, but @ the same time got kicked out of they're homes b/c no 1 "supposedly" wanted 2 deal w/they're shit n help them get them on they're feet. Challenge: would you take in a homeless person,n try 2 help them out? hell no

These dudes are down on Telegraph in Berekeley too.
I'm hit up for money every time I go to Amoeba records or eat on Haight Street. Sorry folks but the summer of love ended 43 years ago. Living on the street, getting loaded and begging for change is not revolutionary, its a total waste of 650 million years of evolution. Not to mention annoying for the people who actually live in San Francisco. I know its fun, but its a terrible long term strategy for survival. Remember, when you hit 30 you "graduate" to the Tenderloin. Good luck with that.

@flagwaver1969 Yeah I had a street guy and a woman, who came up to me and demanded, not asked, for money. When I refused the guy got belligerent. I punched him in the jaw and knocked him out. I left him lying there in the street. I'm all for helping people but I'm not going to allow motherfuckers to shake me down just cause I'm walking down the street.
