I have never said that homeless people are perfect.

I have said that they need to be treated humanely.  You can't help people if you're not humane toward them.

Since I heard about the group shower at the men's side of the Pine Street Inn, I have thought that it should be upgraded.  Men deserve their privacy as much as women do.

Also, so many homeless men have histories of abuse, either as victims or perpetrators or both, that I think it's inhumane to make them take group showers.

I have said before that there's no emotional or psychological support for severely damaged people in homeless shelters.  I don't know why anyone expects to prevent recidivism without that support.

There's no reason that support can't or shouldn't be provided in homeless shelters.

This is the address of a video that I published at YouTube 3 years ago, about one of the ads that Apple had on one of its billboards on the Pine Street Inn women's shelter:

The "half-naked girl" mentioned was either underaged or photographed to look underage.

I thought that was one of Apple's worst ads, particularly because the men's shelter and the women's shelter are in the same building, which has daycares and elementary schools within walking distance.

Since a lot of registered sex offenders can't obtain housing, a lot of them live in homeless shelters.  Did my YELLING THAT YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE ADS PROMOTING CHILD MOLESTATION ANYWHERE, LET ALONE PLASTERED ON HOMELESS SHELTERS deter Apple, Verizon or the rest of the conglomerate in 2016?  It sure didn't.


This is another video about the same ad:
