I should have said taking advantage of those who are helping the less fortunate. If you're choosing to take handouts when, self admittedly, you don't have to... I'm weird like this... I think its wrong.

I had a choice and "chose" homelessness too. I could have stayed with the abusers feeding me free drugs, but I decided I didn't deserve their handouts

I'm sorry for your situation and can sympathize. That's a different situation than OP. I'm not judging anyone who is homeless by real circumstances like yours. OP has admitted in previous posts that they chose to be homeless because of the freedom it provides and didn't like living in an apartment because of noisy neighbors. OP also says it's a lifestyle choice. OP has a a job and admittedly can take care of themselves, but has freely chosen not to and uses churches for shelter and this post this looking for public grills etc. If someone can support themselves, but choses to rely on others for help... I think it's an insult to those, like you, that have real struggles. It's also an insult to those who are trying to help.
