Whoa. Interesting. Does Yahoo protect itself in some sort of disclosure policy about posting pictures? They must. You'd think Virgin Mobile would have mandated their advertising dept. to follow through on the legalities of using indiscrimate shots such as this one.

"The goal of Operation Rescue is to assist unsheltered homeless people experiencing severe mental health and addiction disorders to gain treatment and entry into supportive housing programs. Crisis Homeless Outreach caseworkers will intensify their ongoing engagement in reaching out to the unsheltered homeless, and will focus on those who may be experiencing a crisis."
I work close to Deep Ellum and no longer can walk during my lunch hour because of homeless people nagging at me for handouts. I catch a bus at Ervay and Main where I can watch the wretches drag themselves to their safe zones. I watch the homeless smokers pick up old butts off the sidewalk and then ask me for light (I don't smoke). These people annoy the crap out of me but I don't go ahead and do such on the street. They've interrupted my life way too often and besides which their close proximity to me really stinks up the air I'm breathing. "Can you spare a dollar so I can get a bath at the shelter?" Oh please!
These are not the people in crises!!! The people in crises need help. The above article is not talking about the lazy, drunk, job avoiding, car breaking into, pooping and peeing panhandlers but the too sick mentally who can't wrap their thoughts around anything productive let alone thinking about getting help.
Don't get sidetracked from the issue.
