[quote=afx114][quote=Wickedheart]Yeah, pretty much. I tried to pick up a book from the downtown library a few months ago. I swear 9 out of every 10 people leaving the library at closing time was a bum.[/quote]

Yah, last thing we need are a bunch of bums off of the streets and reading books.

I agree now is not the time for a new library, but existing libraries provide a valuable resource for the less fortunate who might not be able to afford a laptop and cable Internet.[/quote]

Problem is most of them aren’t there to read. I don’t hate bums I just have abumaphobia. Actually I don’t care for anyone who doesn’t bathe regularly (scabies and lice) and I don’t care to be in close proximity to them. This also includes white middle class children who don’t bathe because they are trying to be “punk”.I notice most people with a bleeding heart for bums live somewhere where they really don’t have to deal with them regularly.
