This homelessness in unexceptable in the USA! I laugh my butt off watching Mabe feed the homeless. Now thats a good man! Maybe we could all do something like that until we get the problem fixed! There should be NO homeless people in this country. We are the richest country in the world, yet so many are suffering in the elements with nobody to care for them. It makes me ashamed to be an American when I watch this. Never had I said that before! The good part is...we have great people with huge hearts that will help them. We just need more like him.

My brother was the director of a homeless shelter in our small town. I visited often. For the 8 yrs. he was a director, I watched him put several people back on thier feet. He went out finding jobs for them, helped them get an apt. and all of the assistance available. the majority of those who stayed at the shelter were so thankful for a job and a place to stay that they became good citizens of our town. A few just didn't want to work. Those few kept coming back to live at the shelter. These are the guys wanting a free ride, who were totally capable of working. But my point is, if you take a handful of people, give them options, they will flourish. However, there are others out there who just plain do not want to hold a job, and live off others. Those people were given several chances at jobs. Once found that they weren't going to work, out they went. If on disability and couldn't work, they would do everything to help get them where they needed to be. It takes compassion and love for your fellow man to help those in need. Most of us have that. If every person helped ONE homeless person , we would have alot less people freezing on the streets, going to bed hungry....After having a trauma happen and you end up homeless, thats a double whammy and people get lost in the crowd. If you could imagine having NO support except some strangers now and then after having a traumatic experience that left you homeless is almost too much to bear. We all need to do our part in helping the ones who are willing to help themselves. Our Government should be helping. I think, instead, there will be much more homelessness in our country soon. We the people need to ban together and help each other. It's the Christian thing to do. It's the right thing to do.

The "How to feed the homeless" is a great idea! This guy is a saint! We all should try this and see that the homeless in our state and city can get the same treatment! Kudos, my man!!!
