i stole a dog

[Jimmyjonestoo]

I used to know a guy who worked at a grocery store. He told me stories of this homeless guy with a dog, and the homeless guy would always buy his dog food before himself. The dog was his only friend and was healthy and happy. If you took a dog away from a man in that situation I could not condone it. Hope you know for a fact that dog was neglected/abused, because otherwise that's some fucked up shit to do to someone that only has a dog for a friend.

And I used to know a homeless guy and his dog that would come around the restaurant I used to work at. Guy treated the dog like shit and it was in not in very great of shape. If I could have taken it from him I would have.

totally not cool, u must now take the homeless guy into your life and make him part of your familly. do it now. go find him.
a guy cant even have a little companionship in life when his chips r down with out getting their dog stolen.

lol.. I don't know much about it either.. But I'll take h8's word on the situation since he knows more about it than us.

*Like.* cn

That's a pretty shit attitude to have.

I suspect the bluster reveals defensiveness/resolution and not a shit attitude, myself ... all told I'd rather have a friend like srh88 whose error is on the side of caring. It's just too easy to rationalize doing nothing. Jmo. cn

Hope he shits in your shoe.

Yes, all good points.

I should clarify that I don't necessarily think what he did was wrong. Initially my feelings were: not cool. But it seems like he did it for the right reasons. That being said, to post about it on a public forum and disregard dissenting opinions seems counter-productive.

Right. He seems like a good guy to me and I'm sure he probably made the right choice. Can't imagine he just stole some guys companion.

what is done is done. at least do something nice for the guy. anonymous if needed but you did just steal his friend.

nah im just surprised so many people dont give a shit about people taking care of other things if they cant even handle themselves... i got food i got a house i got a vet.. that dude got a rusty ass bike and maybe an old mattress dragged into the woods

the homeless folks around here that i've met take care of their pets before themselves. but if i saw a neglected/abused dog/cat and could afford to take it on, i would do it.

maybe not in the brazzen fashion of the OP, but maybe so. so i won't judge and just hope the dog is happy and the homeless guy is not writing a manifesto that ends in SRH88's eventual demise.

Truly, those are not the important things. You implied that he was not focused on reality. I'd be curious to know if that is true ... to me that is the mitigating factor, not his lack of worldly goods. My local homeless guy is dirt poor but lucid, and I would not consider getting between him and his (not very clean but apparently healthy) companion. cn

He may have stole his friend, but I believe it was for the best.

I hope Homeless finds it and not someone else ... that would be awfully ironic ... cn

Hey now, around here people would think an old mattress in the woods would be high living.

But I get what you're saying. However, you may or may not be surprised to know that people can often take care of other things better than themselves. Not saying that was the case here, but it happens.

yes, i'd also like to know more about the homeless guy's mental state.

We can justify anything. Why not steal a blind mans dog? He can't look after it like me. ..... actually, why not take his T.V too. Surely all he needs is a radio.

What if he's blind and homeless? ahhhh Take that shit!

this is something i agree and disagree with, while i agree homeless shouldnt have animals because not everyone takes careof them, and if i see a homeless with a dog i always buy dog food, but i disagree with how you did it, i wouldve talked to him and offered the dog a good home , ect, i watched this movie once accidental friendship
Homeless woman Yvonne Caldwell (Chandra Wilson) is a woman with good reason to be bitter: she has lost everything except her two beloved dogs, Bebe and Man-Man. With her one friend, Wes (Ben Vereen), Caldwell lives the daily struggle of being homeless in Los Angeles until a chance encounter caused by her dogs leads to a friendship with LAPD officer Tami Baumann (Kathleen Munroe), and hope for a better life begins in earnest for Yvonne. Friendship between the two women seemed improbable, but their friendship provided a base of support and respect for Yvonne and Tami for more than five years.


it was amoving story
