That person...i mean kid, that knows nothing of the homeless is still doing more than you. All your doing is judging him and shooting down others' positive words for him. Imagine that, he knows nothing of the homeless but yet he is the source to a great deal of positive direction to the source problem.
He's a positive direction? So he taught them education? Or he helped them get jobs? Nah, he only gave food, food those people may never be able to taste again. He had good intentions, but it was wrong. "Here, have a 12 oz steak! Enjoy it, you may never have another in your life!"
People all too often want to just give and not teach or help. Anyone can give but it takes a truly kind and generous heart to actually get down and work with those less fortunate. And those generous hearts are getting to be fewer and fewer.

He's not doing anything. People are doing it for him because he's dying of a slow terminal disease at a young age and they're able to install a camera on him and make everyone in the nation cry.
There are all these kids who died in car crashes or got killed by serial killers or got shot in a school shooting, and they never got a chance to speak to the whole nation and ask a favor. You know how many 11 year old kids die in the US daily? Why is he the angel? Because he died slower? That's what it seems like.

I'm not judging him, but the media, and those who exaggerate, those who accept what media gives them.
I'm not disputing that he's a source of a positive direction (the adjective "great" is debatable, though). I'm disputing that it's really his accomplishment, since, as you said, he knows nothing of the homeless.

In your attack of the media's common over exaggeration (which i don't disagree with) you have inadvertently downplayed what positive effects there have been because of the kid. It's like in a way to set an example the kid was thrown under the bus.

Feeding the homeless, people who were forced to teach themselves to scavenge, whom would not be there were it not for this skill, is an act of enabling.
I do not care how pathetic they look, I refuse to allow them to think that they can live like that. When you're past the turmoil of "oh god i've lost it all" and you're at the rock bottom, you cope, so why, I ask you, why would you reinforce that? As Equinox has said there are institutions that are in place that are fully capable of helping these people, the problem is that his good intention is misplaced, and no matter how cute and novel it is, it's a waste of effort and extremely temporary, and to me a passive abuse of the downtrodden.

Sometimes the right thing isn't right after all.
I completely agree, praise the little moron for his "good deeds" even when in the long run it is people like that that are DESTROYING society.
Someone needed to smack that little ninny around with a book Darwinism.
linxx im not a christian i am as anti religous as it gets
in my opinion there is god thats it
religon causes war and that picture you posted pretty much sums up my opinion about religion
equinox you argue to much and know i no why my dad told me to never get married because 95% of woman bitch and you proved it for me thanks for saving me from hell
only reason im angry is because you came here and started a flame war
I usually try to not post things like that since you don't realy know the people reading these posts so some people might find that offensive. Just a word of advice.
And stop fighting everyone. It's not worth the time and effort. Poeple have different opinions. I know I contributed to the fight a little so I'm sorry, but it's not worth it. Go defend your girlfriend when a sadistic pedophile stalks her or something.
Anyway, I thought this video was very inspiring and touching. Kid, I got your back.

HAHA, good luck enforcing that. Even if you manage to get someone perma banned, it is relatively simple to open a new account.
Nothing is illegal in my world.
Dual-accounting is also against the rules.... I tihnk it gives you a perm ban from both accounts. But then I think they could just check the IP adresses of the people who they banned, so if they come again, they could get a warning and then they just perm ban them... but I don't know. I'm not a mod.
But Jesus Christ. Off-topic. Did you even watch the video?
If anyone wants to complain to someone about why this thread was closed, it was me
I think the reasons are fairly obvious so I hope you don't waste your time
