LETTER: Ignorant and judgmental

Last time I checked, crimes are not committed by only the homeless...

Re: Homeless eviction. I am disturbed by the comments regarding this issue.

One being, “I bet all the business in the area that has seen double digit increases in theft since the camps went up are more than happy to see the camps go.”

Last time I checked, crimes are not committed by only the homeless.

“How about they quit blaming everyone for their poor decisions? You chose to put a needle in your arm or take a puff from a crack pipe.”

Really, not all homeless are addicts!

I find it appalling that such comments are made that are so general and frankly ignorant.

It is unfair to simply put all homeless into such categories, but then again, such comments only remind me, of what I do not want to become – ignorant and judgmental.
