I just had a conversation with a work colleague about tramps and how they live out there lifes. He said along the lines that they should all be locked up and chained to the wall. Funny enough I kinda agree with him, not by chaining them to the wall but I believe how much more crap should society take from these people. I think the government should be provide several bed sits with bread and water and that it [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] At least we would get them of the streets. When I worked in London I used to see them there outside euston shaking them income pots 
Unfortunately with the stigma attached to them - ie are you a druggie. I have been compelled to only giving them a penny or two or just producing a friendly smile as I walk by 
Now I could bet a £100 that the majority of you don’t give money to tramps. The reason is because you lot have a similar opinion to my mate & me but you don’t want to admit it [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
In this world you are what you are. If you want to be a lazy git then so be it. If you want to be a high fly then good luck to you but if you want to be a parasite then you should be treated like how we treat cockroaches
rr – has anyone got access to a road sweeper. Will only need it for half a day at most

I think that you could apply the same logic to gypsies too. They are a bit like PigPen in Peanuts as when they come to an area, in no time flat there is rubbish & burnt out cars littering the surrounding location [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
Have a look at the destruction & devastation that they have caused in Hackney Marsh/Carpenters Road area of E. London - disgusting and trying to justify their "alternate" lifestyle is a non-starter I'm afraid.

so if my dad had been outside your house (and for the infomation of the muppet who said eat the pigions you might be interested to know my dad looked after a baby pigion once and didnt eat it) you'd do what exactly- put a USP to his head and move him on his way- big of you.

Not sure what I would do, but I pretty sure my feckin neighbour [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] would know what to do. He would most probably tie him to his nova and drag him into the sea so a fisherman could catch him and add him to his mantel piece collection

A couple of months ago I had the misfortune to get a train from Waterloo at 4:30 in the Afternoon. Half way home a tramp who unknown to me had been asleep decides to wake up. At first everybody tried to ignore him but then he started walking up and down the carriageway shouting and being abusive so one by one people started walking to the other side of the carriageway.
Next thing I know I hear somebody on the train shouting "can somebody help me please" so I turn around and see a man has got this tramp in a headlock. Seemed he had obviously picked on the wrong person this time and another 3 or 4 people jumped up and helped pin this tramp to the floor. They kept him pinned down and at the next stop got the gaurd and the police were called to cart him away.
This is not the first time I have seen a tramp be abusive to passengers on public transport but it is the first time I have seen somebody do anything about it.

Agree with you there. There were some round our way camped out on a football pitch and children's playground. Surely even in their tiny minds they can't consider this to be acceptable

Yeah but weasels don't live in the city, unless the tramps are willing to venture into the tube tunnels where they have these super weasels that feed off electicity and used one day travel passes. Aparently the guards kick the weasels face off to stun them if they try to run through a gate without a ticket.

im glad my dads way of life provides you with such amusement- perhaps you could tell me if you have everdone anything i can laugh at?
my father never ate weasles or pigions or horses, he did not wee in front of dogs and he didnt upset tube trains so not every "tramp" is like you think- perhaps you should consider the feelings of others before letting fire wit your ill informed acusations on a whole group of people whos lifestyle doesnt suit you.

Yes we also have the same problem with Gypsies every year. Near where I live is a big car park/ park and they congregate there from time to time. Before they were escorted away by the police last year they vandalised 25 cars parked in the car park (For a train station in surrey so you can imagine the sort of cars parked here. Have to be a bit stupid to park your Audi TT/Porsche boxster in a carpark full of Gypsie caravans though if you ask me!!!)
Only good news is that when they were here last month I phoned the police (seemed every other person in our road had complained too) and they were moved on by 6PM the same day. They refused to send the armed response unit and shoot them all though which was a little disapointing. After all I pay my taxes which is more than all the Gypsies do (although they all have expensive brand new Mercedes)

Tramps aren't tramps anymore. When I was a kid they genuinely tramped about from place to place, now they are more "dossers" than tramps.
Gyppos. Never made the filthy mess they do nowadays, they used to come and flog pegs, and lucky heather. If you didn't buy it your luck ran out and their phlegm hit you.
Society is also confronted by "the homeless" these are more "alternative lifestyle" dossers. Products of a caring society with a welfare state. Rights without responsibilties.
They want hosing off the street.
And while I'm on the box, can we go back to calling "paedophiles" child molesters and stop being nice to every misfit who wants to abduct and or abuse decent people.
And I include Satanists in this argument.
