if they had come around and put everything back after, I would have been fine with leaving it separate to make it easier for them. waking up to a massive trash pile strewn about everywhere made me lose all respect for these people.

Ha, ya, you and the rest of society, really going to great lengths to make life harder for the people digging through trash for a nickel a can... I have a feeling maybe that you're really kind of asking for a lot from the people who're probably the least well off in our society... Do you think the person digging through your trash feels respected ever?
> going to great lengths to make life harder for the people digging through trash for a nickel a can.

I hate this bleeding heart crap. As I said before, If they went though it and CLEANED UP after themselves, I woulda turned a blind eye or maybe even set the cans aside in the future. These assholes made me spend my Saturday morning cleaning up trash scattered all over my front yard. You're damn right I'n not going to life a finger to help them.

you ever stop for a second and think that maybe there's a reason no one respects them?

PS: all for expanding the social safety net and creating programs to give people who want a leg up but I have no sympathy for people who Choose to be homeless and be a permanent drain on society. SF already spends more money per capita on homeless than students. enough is enough.
