  • As much as the psni has serious issues the plod here seem ti be mostly compassionate towards the homeless.

    Hmm, when a relative was in PSNI Armagh, they enjoyed picking up the local homeless at night and dumping them in other towns to see how long it took them to get back. That or phoning callboxes beside where they were sleeping pretending to be kindly hotel owners offering them a warm bed, so they went to the hotels to humiliate themselves.

    I've just found out a friend from my teens is homeless with HIV and severe mental problems on the streets in Belfast - would like to hope there's some compassion out there for him.

  • Well I know one cop was shit towards the woman I mentioned, it's mostly unfortunately. At least there are no raids and I have seen cops help people.

    Shit, is he getting help from the local homeless groups? PM me if you want, can't do much but maybe I can at least get him some clothes or something.

    I really don't know - I've heard third hand and haven't seen him in 25 years. I'm told he's refusing help from his family but has support on the street. But thanks for the offer.
