Because you don't know what you're getting yourself into with a stranger, and most people aren't social workers or drug counselors with experience helping the homeless.

thats nonsense. I hang out with the homeless all the time. some of them are really just mentally ill, some are real shitheads, but there are alot of perfectly normal people out there that are just reacting to daily trauma. if can live through not having a place to sleep where you dont have to worry about getting fucked up or raped, and having your shit jacked by the police and other homeless all the time, and still keep some semblance of sanity, then you're a stronger person than I.
