I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough
Now here I am back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go

Now save your neck
Or save your brother
Looks like it's
One or the other
Oh, you don't know
The shape I'm in

Good piece. I have my problems with some of the ways homeless people have been treated locally. One man had his car towed and the compan wouldn't let him get his sleeping bag from the backseat expecting him to freeze all night last winter.

I also know sleeping should not be a crime. My opinions on these particular folks involved in this protest are a long time in forming. I went from being someone whom one would expect to default to support and sympathy for them to a jaded sceptic based on my observations and experiences with them.

When many of these people are truly interested in not being homeless and prefering the "Mall Rat" lifestyle, I and many others are very willing to help them.

But not until then.
