To bearded, pot-smoking bums who beg for change in front of the liquor store, lay down drunk in the lobbies of apartment buildings on North Street while rolling a fatty, and calling people a prick if they ignore their request for change. Nothing makes me happier in the morning than telling you off in the street. Drag your urinous and ruinous asses somewhere else. This isn’t your city and it isn’t even your end of town anymore. It’s our time to shine. —Hard Working North Enders

I didn’t Steve Harper leaved in the North End!
Give’m Hell Steve!
there is quite of few of those sorts there, especially the step at the church on north street that meet maynard street, u will always see someone drinkin there
I have coworkers who park at the liquor store on Agricola (they are leased spaces) who are constantly harassed by men asking for change.
que the bleeding heart condemnation….
“It isn’t even your end of town anymore”
Um, you must be a hipster. Where are they supposed to go?
what the fuck do you expect o.p., this is halisux. and of course, the less than lower class, or even underclass, have infested this city like the vermin that they are. they got a coyote cull, why not a bum cull, or dope dealer cull? fuck, why stop there, just blow this city to hell and all the scumbags with it.
I used to work at Agricola and would get the bums asking me for change. One time a colleague shoved one of the bums when he tried to get sassy. When he tried to rush back in I got in the way. Almost had to give the Hassan Chop.
i haven’t seen johnny around there lately “oh yeah, i remember you, you got nothing for me”
Piss in a bottle and pour it on them. Who are the cops going to believe: a tax paying, employed citizen, or a stoned/drunk homeless fucking bum. Guess what…..you win 🙂
i guess you’re entitled to your opinion, even though it’s simple, harsh and disgusting, but why sound off on the internet about it. i don’t think piss bums reads the coast.ca–you fucking asshole

That sound you just heard was the collective facepalm of everyone else, you dipshit.
The pure craptasticness of this OP’s writing makes me want to call “Bullshit”. Sounds kind of fake in it’s style, but I have met arseholes just like OP, so it’s peobably real.
What’s really “fake in it’s style”? Using an apostrophe on a possessive pronoun as if it were a noun. Shouts go out to wheeliep. Let’s all take “hi’s” advice.
