      You can let a homeless person sleep on your couch if you actually care. Wanna do it and prove you’re not full of it?

        I’ve done you one better;

        my community and I have gotten together and funded local orgs that house and give homeless people basic amenities. Even safe places and tools to use drugs without harming others or spreading disease. We even gave them exemption from police searches while using these services so the government thugs can’t harass or batter them just for being homeless or addicted to drugs.

        I have also personally let a homeless person use my shower and sleep on my couch, but I have no way of proving that to you.

        They’re humans, they have basic human needs.
