[@AW-vi3df]

No, it’s not. Squatters are human beings, whether you like it or not. They are just people desperate in a desperate situation just looking for a roof over their head. For a place to keep warm for the night. Squatters are not nasty disgusting creatures . They are human beings. And a little bit of compassion and kindness and empathy would not kill you. Because at least in this country, homelessness could happen to you… it could happen to any one of us …out of nowhere, we could lose absolutely everything at any moment, and be forced to the streets because our country doesn’t believe every human being should be housed. Praying for your soul .❤

[@AW-vi3df]

Respectfully requesting that you do not compare desperate struggling human beings to nasty creatures like barnacles. I cannot describe how offended and how hurt I am to hear someone dehumanize their fellow citizens by likening them to an invasive disgusting sea creature It’s a parasite . Not a human being. There is a huge difference and I’m so sorry you cannot see that. But a little bit of empathy and compassion would not kill you . I promise. Because it could happen to you.. it could happen to anyone.. and I assure you you very much wouldn’t like it if people treated you like a parasite instead of the human being you are.
