I can't believe I actually looked that up, absolutely disgusting. Never seen anything as brutal as that before :/
The homeless are only people without homes, they aren't some crazy new species of man.
Saddens me to see how some people treat them.
Good stuff for spending time with a couple and treating them like the humans they are
This,
They deserve homes more than some of the scum we are housing in this country today.... Cardiff university does a good soup/sleep on the street night with all the homeless people to raise awareness and money...
Good Times
If you're on about the video the Dnipro Maniacs shot, the guy wasn't a 'bum'.
The man whose brutal murder is recorded in the leaked video was identified as Sergei Yatzenko from the village of Taromskoye. His murder took place on July 12, 2007, and his body was found on July 16.[12]
Yatzenko was 48 years old. He had recently been forced into retirement due to a cancer tumor in his throat. The treatment left him unable to speak for some time, but Yatzenko was unhappy with being unable to work and continued to find odd jobs around the village. He took on small construction projects, fixed cars, weaved baskets, and cooked for his family. He was beginning to regain his voice by the time of the murder. Yatzenko was married and had two sons and one grandchild. He also had a disabled mother whom he looked after.

Apparently homeless people are subhuman and you can do anything you like with them without remorse.
I know, truly horrific. According to Wiki, they did the same with over 20 other people, even cutting a foetus out of a woman's womb. Just shocking. :/
Anyway, good to see people treating the homeless as human beings rather than something different. Good on you.
Good effort mate. I have in the past bought two lots of lunches for a homeless guy who sits outside the Tesco express near work. I felt guilty getting him a cheese and onion and choose to give him the same as me Chicken and Bacon sarney. Lucky he was not a vegetarian
good man

That reminds me of a funny encounter we had with a tramp in Bristol (Clifton). A tramp usually sits under the arch near Victoria square.
We passed said tramp to go to the supermarket and were asked if we had any change for food. We declined, and proceeded to by a 10 pack of sausage rolls that were discounted. Whilst returning home, we passed the tramp again and were asked if we had any money, having been to the shops. I said no, but we then offered him the remainder of the sausage rolls (8 of them). He looked angry and quipped "I'm a vegetarian!!! ... but if you had any money...?". Again, we declined.
Has there even been a more apt time to say beggars can't be choosers?

PROOF, if any were needed, that most of them just want money for booze.
The genuine ones I do feel sorry for and wish there was more help for them, however some of them are clearly not genuine and are just out to fleece people because they need money for their next fix or for alchol. Like thoes people who sell the big issue a lot of people make the mistake of thinking just because they have a " job " so to speak they must be alright .. wrong, cos weve had one recently coming into work stealing.
errrr the victim in 3 guys 1 hammer wasnt a bum. he was an ordinary yet ill bloke out for a ride on his motorbike. i dont think any of the other victims where bums either but theres not a lot of info about them all.
i often take time to talk to the homeless. admittedly usually after a few drinks (as tbh thats the only time ive seen them) usually give them some food or offer to buy them a cuppa. unless theyre drunk or high you soon realise theyre just normal people who have hit some awfully bad luck.

Yup point conceded. However at the start of the video the victim is lying under a bit of cardboard, easy mistake to make.
