Homeless live in man’s backyard

Associated Press

BLOOMINGTON – An advocate’s decision to let several homeless people spend the night in tents he has set up in his backyard has angered some residents in a southern Indiana neighborhood.

Hal Taylor erected the tents behind his Bloomington home about a week ago after spending a night in jail when police expelled a group of homeless people from a city park shelter.

“I’ve been providing shelter for the homeless in Bloomington, because they’ve been denied any place to sleep in Bloomington by the city government,” said Taylor, a retired Episcopalian minister.

But next-door neighbor Mike Dyer says many who live in the section of the city’s south side are worried about their safety.

Eight to 10 people stay in the tents each night.

4. REAL Christians know Jesus be Waiting For this Good Old Man.

How to get into the Kingdom of Heaven (according to JC): "Feed the hungry, clothe the naked, comfort the suffering." Nothing in there about stuff up your bank accounts, screw the poor, hound the workers, or punish the homeless. Super rich satanists on Wall Street have stolen trillions and brought the entire country to the very brink of collapse. But instead of hating on these devilish fiends, the faux Christians are mad at poor folks. See you all in hell. Hope you enjoy your SUV's and big screen TV's and that. Get lots of use of 'em because frying hell lasts a long time. Ah, but what's the use. They are braindead and can't hear anyhow.

8. The republicans call themselves christians. Funny they don't seem to realize god has

abandoned them because they haven't done his work. They have this notion that god wants everyone wealthy and to hell with everyone else. They are so blind they can't see what they are doing to people who have nothing.
