LOL, I went a little wide of my point. And my point was, this is the kinda crap you see in densely populated environments. Having experienced the city and country, I'll take the country all day long. Mammals were not meant to live in packed populations.
Found out the hard way breeding rats in college. Long story, but they had 6 litters one Sunday morning. By Tuesday, those babies were all eaten, no trace. tl;dr: You pack people together, you get bad behavior.
And I hadn't seen it as an anti-homeless thing! That idea has meat on the bones. Yet another case of American's treating the symptoms and not the disease. Wasn't it Chruchill who said, "You can count on Americans to do the right thing, after they've exhausted every other possibility."?
