I'm all but certain you're certain you're incorrect.

I would invite you to do a ride along with your local police, local EMS / Fire Rescue if allowed, to develop a more informed opinion, as they spend a significant amount of time interacting with the homeless population.

Have you considered that people who are called specifically to emergency situations might not have the most representative sampling?

Possibly a better view than the rose-colored glasses perspective many have from viewing the "comfortable" homeless.

No one's perception of the homeless in these discussions seem to take into account the person that died last week, I guess is what I'm getting at.

I would invite you to prove the opposite is true actually, because what I said seems far closer to reality.
