As much as I hate the eerdiots! I can't bring myself to make fun of the homeless.

E-

You’re a man of passion and conviction, and I agree with you there is no justification in making fun of the homeless. However I simply disagree with your reaction to this post. The video itself in no way makes fun of the homeless, it makes its’ point very well. Several of the signs in the video suggest the holder of the sign has advanced training, the fact that WVU is mentioned specifically out of the thousands of schools offering training is still funny to this reader, it doesn’t mean I don’t have compassion for, or am laughing at, the man holding the sign.

Agree with the E-Man, regardless of the specific mention there's nothing funny about homelessness and with the wrong break it could happen to any of us even a Marshall grad.

I don't see what's funny about this...

So why is he homeless?  Just because he didn't get a job with this degree?  Thousands of people don't work doing exactly what their degree is in. 

I know school systems need math and science teachers more than ever.  Of course, you can't get drunk and high 7 days a week.

Just looking at the State there are two jobs that he could apply for (you need a 4-year degree)

Fish Hatchery Assistant Manager   
State Park, Forests, Wild Life Management Superintendent I

Schools in Logan - Roane - Spencer - Eleanor - Hurricane - Auora - all need science teachers

He looks like the youngest and most able bodied of all the sign holders

As one of my professors in college once told me and I stick by these words.  Life is all about choices.

As much as u hate WVU..really not cool to use this to further the point.

And I'm not saying they wouldn't do it to us, either.

I appreciate the fact that this was moved to the Smack Board.  In my opinion it should be moved off the board totally. 

Also, while I can agree somewhat with the 'choices' comment, not everything is as black and white as some would like to make it seem.

McKay why don't you just give us a social justice speech either that or the communist manifesto
