    What did I miss. There's obviously a Walgreens right here at the corner, as you know.

    Wow, now they arrested the shop owner for spraying the woman with water. That's ridiculous.

    I'm happy they did. Pretty inhumane. Society will become better when most people see that clip and think it's horrible and inhumane.

    We are losing as a society when people look at that and defend the business owner.

    The business owner called the city multiple times and tried to get the homeless woman city services, which the homeless woman denied. The homeless woman was a nuisance and harassed people to where the business owner was losing customers. The business owner called police and they ignored him.

    The only bad person in this is the city for failing to protect the business owner and homeless woman. Yet the only person with repercussions is the business owner.

    She was sitting on a public sidewalk in front of a different business...

    Spraying a homeless person with water in the winter is a pretty dick move. Not like the can go home and change into clean dry clothes.

    Man I'm just done with society.

    Small business owners will be the downfall of our society. Their sense of entitlement is so pathetic. We treat them like babies who need to be coddled.

    I'm sympathetic towards the business owner also. It sounded like he offered her help multiple times and she refused. He doesn't seem like a bad guy. The city failed both this woman and him.

    Spraying water to get her to move doesn't look good, but it is more humane that physically grabbing her or pushing her away.

    I don't trust the words of a man who was willing to do that. That seems like "saving face" rhetoric.

    So you're okay with the homeless woman threatening his livelihood? He may not be far from homelessness if he loses his business.

    He's entitled because he doesn't want to be harassed, working around trash, having to clean up after her filth? That's not a society I want to live in.
