Well, we are trying to reduce the number of homeless.

[struggle]

Lol, I used to do that every year in Japan. On Christmas, I’d jog or bike down to the Shijo Matsuo bridge in Kyoto and drop a carton of Seven Stars with a bow on it in front of all the makeshift cubicles the homeless had constructed under the bridge. MAN, I loved cigarettes back then.

Witty comment Number 1: In exchange for VOTES?

Witty comment Number 2: Good. The sooner we kill off The Homeless, the sooner they stop poopin’ on my lawn!

Now this is true compassion. For most of these people that pack of cigarettes will be their greatest pleasure for the next day or two.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

If you asked the homeless what they wanted, cigs would be one of their top requests right after booze so I don’t see a problem with this.

[Tau Food]

This is crazy. Don't give cigarettes or booze to homeless people. Don't give weapons to crazy people. Don't feed fat people.

Common sense.

Good. 90% of the bums on the street ask me for cig. I’m happy to give one.
