A Bum In My Yard!!!

[boaz]

Instead of a lady in the landscaping, what if the intruder had been a hen in need of food, shelter, perhaps medical attention? Would most hose her down and call animal control or take her inside to do what could be done for her?

I am sorry, but I think that is ridiculous. You can't honestly believe that a sane person choses to live on the streets, can you? If you really do feel that way, it is pointless for me to continue this conversation with you. We can agree to disagree. I will NEVER believe that a NORMAL person with no mental illness CHOOSES to live on the streets.

LOL I was thinking if that hen could kill me or my family, steal things, etc it would have to go and umm yes if it was THAT big I would call animal control. If it was smoking I would have to take pictures first

Oh... haven't read the entire thread but I will say this much...

THANK GOD I'M A COUNTRY GIRL!!!

The only "bums" we have around here are the four legged kind

Agreed, if the hen was harmless and didn't smoke I would keep her but the bum would have to go.

I'm sorry, but that was funny to me. Not that she was homeless, but that she was hiding and smoking a cigarette.

Why don't these "homeless" folks save their money instead of buying cigarettes and alcohol? So they've got a habbit! Kick it! And don't no one tell me it can't be done cold turkey, either, cause I tossed half a pack of cigarettes out the window December 24th, 2007 and haven't picked one up since (except the occasional butt in the yard from DB

)

The words in red........

But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 “Whoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either. 30 “Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back. 31 “Treat others the same way you want them to treat you. 32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 “If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 “If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount. 35 “But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men. 36 “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. 37 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned. 38 “Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”

Then the king will say to those at his right hand, 'Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.' 45 Then he will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.' 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
