San Diego Food Bank on Distribution Drive
trabson7-Unfortunately, I have gotten to know some of the homeless in Ocean Beach, because a good friend of mine has a son who habitually runs away, and we have found him down in the park at the beach, buying, selling, and doing drugs with many of them. Many of them are drunk everday, and are doing nothing to try and better themselves. Many of them hang out under the pier, selling drugs and bumming money for beer and cigarettes all day long. They swear, fight, crap on the stairs that I use to get to the beach, etc. I have even found them lying passed out with their wangs hanging out..just what I want my daughter to see. They all seem to have plenty of money to party, but apparently none to feed themselves, or get themselves into a shelter, or room for rent.— February 1, 2008 1:50 p.m.

One more thing that infuriates me about the homeless in Ocean Beach is the number of them that have dogs. If you can't feed yourself, and if you have no place to live, you have no right to have a poor helpless animal that depends on you for their livelihood.— January 31, 2008 3:57 p.m.

I know that Lupe is trying to do a good thing by feeding the homeless, but, unfortunately, the homeless she is feeding are made up mostly of drug abusing low-lifes that stay in Ocean Beach , in part, because of people like her that make it easy for them. Many of them are runaways, that have left home, not because of a bad homelife, but because they want to do drugs, and their parents don't allow that. I live in Ocean Beach, and I can't even take my daughter down to enjoy the beach , because of the number of homeless that hang out in the park there.Feeding them just keeps them there. I understand that there are exceptions, but I see them every single day, and know that most of them are not just people who are " down on there luck". The adult homeless "party" with young kids/teenagers that live there, and it makes me sick. They are dragging our community down.— January 31, 2008 1:45 p.m.
