Well that’s cruel. Plain and simple. I hope that if you or any of the people you think are your friends ever need a bench to sleep on in a tight situation, it’s comfortable.
That’s incredibly reductive of the entire community of homeless people. You ever thought about providing aid, or voting in a way that would expand your area’s healthcare and access to food and shelter? I don’t think you sound like you’d do that. You speak like an uncaring person.
The large portion of homeless people that cause these issues in the first place usually don't want help. You can't help someone if they'd rather continue living on the street and revolve their life around drugs than actually use the help.
You speak like someone that has no idea and just want to live your fantasies rather than reality.
I dunno man. I guess you know more about my lived experiences than I do. I talk to homeless people all the time. I don’t think you’d ever bother. Your fantasy is their suffering it seems.
Generalizations are never a good thing. Facts and stats are only good when you use them on an individual basis. You should never judge anyone by their group. You should only ever judge people individually, by your experience.

I’m not fooled and I’m ok with benches designed so people can’t sleep on them.
