[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unpopular view, but the first step would be to start calling “unhoused persons” bums, and overdosing “members of the community” addicts. You should be burning up the police call in number and the ones for the Mayor and council members. These things happen because they’re allowed to. [/quote] This view is popular with me. The progression of absurd, empathic euphemisms: - bum / vagrant / derelict / hobo - homeless person - person experiencing homelessness - unhoused person As if the only thing separating Obama from the ex-con alcoholic druggie street scammer is that, somehow, the scammer missed the day houses were distributed.[/quote]
