[QUOTE="yeshuaslavejeff, post: 74388892, member: 96665"] "Very well known" ? .... yet homelessness continues in most countries including USA. Who realizes this ? > "There is a “homeless code” [B][U]If you learn one thing fast, it’s that no one is going to look out for you [/U][/B]and so you learn to band together with other homeless people. We would do our best to help each other out, share tips, and stuff like that. Now there are even tent cities, homeless encampments, in some places.
