"It's hot, it's summer time and everyone needs a special treat," Salvation Army Area Commander Gene Hogg said in the release.

I prefer orange creamsicles anyway. Speaking of which, I think there's a nude beach nearby.

TFA is useless without pics of free ice cream.

Also, if you can't hide your sexuality for free ice cream from a charity you're doing it right. F*ck them.

You live on the Jersey Shore?!?

Ed Finnerty: You live on the Jersey Shore?!?

I meant to place mentioned in the article.

And no. But I'd do Ronnie in a second. I like 'em big and stupid.

I have some ice cream. I have some ice creeeeeeam. And you can't afford none cause you are on the welfare. And your father is an alcoholic! I have some ice creeeeam!

Do they have the new Bath Salt flavors?

The gays want bomb pops.

Don't give it to them! They'll only use it to trade for liquor.

"People always say that. Get a job you bum! Like it's always that easy. I saw a guy say that to a bum once. The guy was wearing his underware outside his pants. Im guessing there will be a few problems during the interview process. I'm betting his resume aint all up to date. Even McDonald's has an Underware goes inside the pants policy. Not that they enforce it strictly enough but technically I'm sure it's on the books."

Do you have bootstrap flavor?

Kind of off-topic, but it reminds me of the time I said to my sister "If that book The Secret is as awesome as you and Oprah think it is, then instead of sending food and aid to third world countries, we should just send them copies of The Secret, and then poverty-stricken parts of the world would be able to simply wish their way to prosperity.

publikenemy: Don't give it to them! They'll only use it to trade for liquor.

People say that to. "Don't give em any money they'll just waste it on booze or drugs. Well thats what I was gonna spend it on. Why am I judging this poor bastard? He's homeless, what do you want him to do? save it up and got to Target for a throw rug and a CD rack?"

well first he needs a job. and in order to do that he'd have to suck your dick

You're laying on the smug a little thick there, subby. Something tells me that the average Salvation Army worker does more in a week to help the needy than you have in your entire life. That goes double for everyone whingeing about how they mistreat the gays. By all means, enjoy feeling superior for expressing the right moral opinions on the internet. Meanwhile, all these awful, homophobic Christian charity organizations that "hate" gays will go on helping people.

That's called doing the most good.

Only if they remembered to pack them.

Excuse me, it's time to put on my ratty jeans and torn T-shirt and go gets me some free ice cream.

LittleSmitty: Excuse me, it's time to put on my ratty jeans and torn T-shirt and go gets me some free ice cream.

don't forget the intoxication factor. maybe shoot up some dope. and then they'll know you are homeless.

also ICE CREAM tastes totally RAD when your TRIPPING on OXYCONTIN

Hitler started the Winterhilfswerk to help the homeless, but all anyone wants to talk about is the "Final Solution"

Leave poor, hard working Hitler alone!

Are you going to be that guy? Don't be that guy, nobody likes that guy.

Sometime's you gotta just enjoy the little things!

Honestly, I think things like this (giving away treats) probably do quite a bit for their happiness. In fact, most of my charity is in this vein. I usually have cold soda with me, and sometimes there will be some beggar holding their cardboard sign in the hot sun and I'll give them a soda (occasionally even a beer). I've given beggars chocolate bars, etc.

When you're poor, often these little luxuries are the things you never get. They're not realistically going to get off the street, but at least they can have a little brightness in their day.

// or maybe I'm just a stingy bastard ...
/// but I pay plenty of taxes -- those create a social safety net (right?)

you're forgetting that there's no such thing as a homeless person. not with Romney/Obama in office. 4 MORE YEARS

No, you must evaluate organizations wholesale. Good or bad. With us or against us. Black or white.

Could be worse, they could be handing out bibles.

Yeah because sugary treats is exactly the thing you want to give people without toothbrushes

A friend of mine is a member of a Kindred that hands out all kinds of things to the homeless in this area. I think it's been ice cold, bottled water the last few days, in addition to the normal "bag o' yummy treats" and sammiches and other little things to help them out. I've gone out with them a few times when they've done things like that and the homeless folks really do appreciate it.

They do other things as well to help where they can, it's just such a problem here that even with all the groups working the area they can't really even make much of a dent. At least they're making that dent - I'll give them that.

vodka: Yeah because sugary treats is exactly the thing you want to give people without toothbrushes

Actually my experience with the homeless is most of them carry a toothbrush in their pocket or bag.

They need a balanced meal of liver and onion + asparagus.

Meh, I'll just find a Steel Reserve can and put it in my pocket. Monday and Tuesday are my days off so I haven't shaved.

Ice Cream!
