Don't Help" posters on any business, I finally found one on the door of a Churn
Creek business. However, after shooting some pictures and video and letting the
manager of the business know that I would soon be sharing his business and his
position with the citizens of Redding and about 5,000 of my personal friends,
followers, local relatives and others....he admitted the Handouts group just came
through the center handing out the posters to businesses and one of his girls put
it up on the door without clearing it with him. Seems, while some local businesses
are going along with the organizations position on homeless giving....they are
pretty quick to jump ship, as this smart manager did when he gladly turned over
the poster to me.
My advice, if you do not agree with this heavy-handed approach to helping the
homeless or you feel like I do, someone that has given for years to the local mission
and food banks, who no matter how much they get, can't seem to ever get the job
done. Take a camera out with you when you shop. Take a photo of every business
proudly displaying one of these signs and let them know we will help them promote
their position internet wide._citizenactivist

ReplyDeleteLooked a Shopco/Raley's on Lake Blvd,
ReplyDeleteno posters. Up and down Hilltop Dr. in
and out of 4 or 5 other Churn Creek
and Hilltop Dr. Shopping centers. They
maybe supportingthis effort and they
may not be. But they are not proud
enough of it to brag about it to you
Redding citizens.
Remember, Homeless are Citizens Too.

Thank you Khal_Nekro I can tell you've been
there. 8 years after the VA admitted the
relationship between Agent Orange and the
4 life-threating surgeries I've had over
the past 10 years. They finally settled my
case awarding me a 30% disability. It actually
took almost an act of congress. Actually
I formed an Obama group first time he ran and
together the members of that group and I raised
$50,000 dollars. After he was elected I sent
some collections, and several other bills
along to his offices and asked him to take
care of them, I was tired of making excuses.
That settlement came shortly aferwords. It
allowed me to pay back all my relatives and
pay off my debts and purchase my wife a used
Toyota. I am greatful belive me and today I
am going to the VA to get a "FREE" blood test,
that's if you don't count the 50 or so times
the VC tried to kill me in a 5 month period.
Now, regarding all that other Veteran help,
it's estimated that a full 1/3rd of all
homeless across the country are Vets. Last
I heard about 30,000 a month are returning
to this mess here back home. Prospects are
not good for them.
About 1.5 yrs ago, my wife and I gave up our
rental home, yes we rented, as the nearly 1
million in real estate I had amassed was lost
due to the months after the last surgery a
triple bi-pass. So that made three times I
have dug out of the dumps with no money or
credit. Anyway, we gave up our home to move
in with mom as she could not care for herself
and not one of the last 3 relatives my family
put into rest homes lived over about 2 weeks.
Mom is great now, thank you, and we'd like
to move out again and back to our own place.
We have since both retired on Social Security
and with the small VA we can make the monthly
payment and other expenses. But, we could use
some one-time help with deposits, first and last.
Now, we both went to the local Vet Homeless
event and met with the two agencies
and turned in applications for assistance.
One seemed amazed I actually had an honorable
discharge and no felonies. Both promised to
get back to us, one within 24 hours. Neither
have. Do you get my drift? That's why I fight.
No, we did not ask to be paid for helping our own mom, some do..that has been a labor of love.
