Is Giving A Homeless Person $ For Drugs STO?

[Ming the Merciful]

I say, give the guy some change. We don't know if he will use it to buy a crack pipe or a hamburger and why does it matter?
I do not believe it is misplaced compassion either. Perhaps it is for some other guy, but what about the guy that is always wise and needs to balance his wisdom with unbridled compassion? Without examining the motives of another and without digging into his blue ray?
I mean, we aren't putting our homes up for a second mortgage, are we? We are literally talking about pocket change.
If someone tells you they need heroin or they think they will go through the withdrawal and die due to the withdrawal symptoms, I am going with a hard NOPE. NO MONEY; but are they hungry? Are they thristy? Do we have $5.00?

Do you know how it feels when you haven't eaten for three days, and somebody gives you money or food? You have reached Nirvana. Fortunately, (for myself), when I was homeless I was not on drugs, although one night I stayed at a homeless shelter in Girona and it was obvious who was high. I avoided such people, apart from the fact I did not speak Catalonian. Although as I considered my homelessness almost like a "Walkabout". Have you heard of anyone who enjoyed being homeless? You have now. One of the most enjoyable times of my life. Believe it, (or not), there are times when I could happily relive the experience. Its not the lack of money or possessions, its the Liberation. If you approach homelessness from the right perspective, it can be liberating. Dropping all the constraints of society, and viewing it from the outside. Man, while it lasted it was fun.
