homeless man with a golden voice.

God damn you're a cynical bastard.

 

[radioguy6]

ya i thought it was nice seeing this guy have a chance to turn his life around but I still had a feeling he would relapse.

 

[greasy]

God damn you're a cynical bastard.

It is called being a realist. I guess I could call you a naive bastard in the same respect then.

 

[skeezer]

this guy had some drinks and hes in rehab because of it? come on.

this wasnt an isolated incident.
I remember reading an article right when this guy got big, they interviewed some people who knew/interacted with him when he was homeless-- and they said he was stealing things and getting in trouble with the law.

I'm just not a buzz killington like you. It's sad the dude couldn't stay clean with all his new found money. Maybe rehab will give him that boost to fully overcome it.

Why would you ever feel sympathy for a man in his situation? How about feeling sympathy for his fucking family that he abandoned. Your feelings are misplaced.

Did the guy ever get clean at one point? The stories made it seem like he became homeless from being a drug addict but then got clean and then became an Internet sensation. Now he's back to his old ways.

I think you can summarize the two different reactions to this guy's second chance with one word:

HOPE.

I'd HOPE that if I were in his shoes, that I'd do great things with a similar opportunity.

I'd HOPE that he was ready to move past his mistakes in life and really take advantage of his good fortunes.

I'd HOPE people would empathize with anyone who has lived on the street for how many ever years, no matter the reason. Seems easy enough to imagine how hard that must be for anyone, no matter the situation. Earned or not.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Nope. Just throw those people away like trash regardless if they try to better themselves or not.

You get one chance in life. Blow it? Die!

 

[blakbearddelite]

It's kind of sad that this couldn't happen to someone more deserving and someone that could use it to help their family instead of blowing it all on booze and drugs.

 

[Eagle]

Sure is.

No, let's spend more tax dollars on giving him welfare, healthcare and money for his alcohol and drug edition.

 

[blakbearddelite]

That is kind of why I'm siding with Jim on this one. Some people would do anything to put food on the table and clothes on their kids back, and this guy gets a chance to make some changes and he blows it. Well, maybe it's too early to decide if he's blown it, but it is not a good start.

and we're off..

New Edition?

 

[Turk]

LOL, why the fuck did I type edition. SHIIIIITTTTTT

 

[Turk]

Joel, if you feel so bad for this guy, why don't you open your home to him?

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Maybe I'm mistaken but I don't think homeless drug addicts get those things nor would they want it.

LOL, you're mistaken!

 

[Turk]

He wouldn't be so homless if you just let him live in your house Joel.

 

[blakbearddelite]

You were typing faster than thinking. I can see though, addiction / edition, they sound pretty close.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Joel, if you feel so bad for this guy, why don't you open your home to him?

I'm just saying that it's sad that he chose to relapse with his new found fame instead of bettering himself.

 

[Turk]

It is sad, but he made his bed, time for him to sleep in it.
