You said they werent homeless. Then you said they were homeless. This isn't word games. Either you're trolling or truly contradicting yourself.

You literally just quoted me than paraphrased it wrong.

I can't teach you the nuances of written English.

If you are insinuating that "the homeless" has some sort of different meaning than being homeless you're going to need to be explicit about what you mean. Clearly no one else in this comment thread understands you.

He’s separating the individuals from the group.

His argument is that the problem isn’t that they are “the homeless”, the issue is that they were in that specific spot. So this wasn’t to combat “the homeless” or fix homelessness, but only to get those individuals out of that area.

I'm not insinuating anything, I am very bluntly pointing out that you are either trolling me or genuinely don't understand what I clearly and correctly wrote.

We done here?

That's at least three people you have insisted are too stupid to understand you.

Maybe there's a constant in this issue where so many people can't get your shifting statement

It's called piling on. Have you been to the internet before?

Maybe they're piling on because you said something fucking stupid and contradictory and refuse to back down from the demand that it should make sense to everyone

Jesus christ, I got 32 up votes, and 3 confused screamers, so I guess 10% can't fucking read. I'm alright with that.
