Speaking to the pan handling conversation. I have a dear friend who, was homeless! He WORKED with me by simpmy applying himself to labor ready and getting a job at our mill. He now has moved on to a better job and provides for himself, his kid and his new fiance.. he told me himself "being homeless was a choice" "getting a job and being a contribution to society is a choice" ..I no longer will give money I put toward my children's future in the hands of someone who doesn't apply themselves.
