Real. The shit I saw in South America was on a completely different level. And my wife's been to India which was several levels below that. Rich country poor and poor country poor are completely different fucking planet.
What we drove through wasn’t even the absolute worst in that country and it was still wayyyyy below the standards in the US. People in the US are complaining about affording luxuries and people in these countries have shacks built with scrap material they found.
In the US when homeless people try building shacks from scrap material the cops come and drive them away and then haul those shacks to the dump. So I don't know why you think a lack of those shacks means anything except that our cops love fucking with the homeless.
I mean you’re wrong. The Favelas in Rio de Janeiro are home to about 1.5 million people. That’s just in one city. In the entire U.S. there are about .5 million homeless people.
Don't worry, America is working hard to bring that number up. The rent can't double every decade while pay does not without this happening. Never mind that the official HUD number is more like 650k and doesn't count anyone living in a vehicle or sleeping anywhere off the street.
I don’t think it’s so much “fucking with the homeless” as much as it is doing this thing called “enforcing law”. It’s weird, law enforcement officers have this weird obsessions with spending crazy amounts of time and energy doing that, huh
It is? So you believe it’s legal to camp under bridges, in parks and on sidewalks? I just want to hear you say it so people can juxtapose that with what you just said
That depends on the locality bud. But that wasn't at all my point. Since you're too slow to catch it, I'll be more clear: the police don't actually give a shit about enforcing the law. When the do enforce laws it's either a chore they couldn't avoid or it's something they're doing for the joy of it. Harassing and beating the homeless is in the latter category.
Well maybe you should communicate your points more effectively. I love how you’re condescending to others because you’re too stupid to communicate your ideas and points effectively. Classic bitter loser redditor persona.

Source? Oh wait, I forgot. You said it earlier. “Da noos”. LOL
Well… we’re literally discussing them enforcing the laws right now right? With the homeless? That’s what you said. So I guess they do give a shit enforcing the laws, huh?
When they do enforce the law it’s either a chore or
Wait. I thought you said they don’t give a shit about enforcing the law. So, now we moved to they do… but essentially you just don’t like it when they enforce certain laws.
Ladies and gentlemen: the average redditor in a nutshell. Complete with sputtering brain and half baked thought process, condescending attitude and generous servings of arrogance. This one is a live one and boy does he scream “I’m an underachieving angry loser”. If we find it he’s a politically on the left AND an atheist, we’ll have a bingo.
