when i was out in l.a. alot, i would always go out to dinner with people and make everyone save their leftover that they hadn't mutilated or where there was a decent portion of the meal left over. there are plentyof homeless in l.a., shit some of them are probably people who came out there looking to hit it big and hit the streets. i normally hand them a bag of food from some good restaurant with like a 5 dollar bill inside. if you're gonna be on the streets you might as well be warm. for 5 bucks you can get a couple bottles of cisco or some mad dogg 2020. the way i see it is, the restaurant would throw away the food anyhow, and to give the guy 5 bucks isn't gonna kill me, i spend sometimes hundreds of dollars a night on liquor, why shouldn't he be entiled to 5 bucks worth. living on the street is a job.
