Some time back, a woman with a home was attacked, allegedly by a homeless man. The new urban loft dwelling residents of Nashville were appalled. And they demanded that something be done about the homeless situation. They even got on the local news stations to express their outrage that homeless people were allowed to loiter.
Just the other day a homeless man was murdered by another homeless man. I'm still waiting for the publicly announced outrage from the new urban loft dwelling residents of Nashville. But all I'm hearing are crickets.

I just found your blog through "Tales from Far Manor".
ReplyDeleteRecently my ex husband spent some time on the streets after wearing out his welcome with various family and friends.
The tales of violence in the shelters was a definite eye opener. You're right you don't hear about the homeless on homeless violence and other crimes. The media just ignores it and they shouldn't.
Hang in there and may God Bless and keep you.
