Stumbled across this story this morning, and it made me sad:
http://www.alternet.org/hungry-homeless-man-ticketed-digging-through-trash
A homeless man was ticketed for digging through garbage cans to find something to eat.
What....I mean...where are we going as a society?
Why didn't the cop grab him a $1 burger at a local fast food joint? Or drive him to a shelter or soup kitchen? Or, I don't know, just leave him alone?!?! He's already at a low point in his life...
oh wait! oh wait! Did I mention he's a NAVY VETERAN?
O.o
