I refuse to let folks have a pass on some things, these days.
Last week, Salt Lake City held a little "Homeless Solutions Conference", and where I usually sit at the library (where it was held) gave me a bit of a sideline seat, one that offered insight into issues of why these folks are so freaking clueless, so many times, about the real issues and how to seek answers.
I won't reiterate what I said on my rant blog, just advise folks to follow this link to it.

Give me a few tries to make it work right, I am not an expert at linking, activism and all that crap, but....
When all it takes for Evil to triumph.... well, you know the rest of the quote, and I do view myself as a bad man with good intentions at least.. So, call me a Good Man, and realize, while I may not walk into such a meeting and unload both barrels, I do listen in, eavesdrop sinfully, if you must say it, and refuse to let somethings slide, when it's obvious you seek the "hide it under the carpet" approach, rather than seek a true resolution that might reduce the problem significantly.
Chalk it up to my allergies, if you must, but I must also make another quote, to warn folks I won't back down anymore, if pushed....
"No more running...I aim to misbehave." - Malcolm Reynolds, Captain of the Firefly class transport "Serenity" in the film of the same name.
