what a dick smith.
He’s a lot safer than he’d be if he was in one of those ‘we luv everyone’ liberal homeless shelters funded by the rip-off United Way...
just had a 10 second blurb on wrko AM news.
Do I have to check Glob & Herald to see that yahoo news is embarrassing locals into covering this?
the guy sounds saner than the city bureaucrats trying to hound him into accepting city “services”
