Operation VanGuard: "Cover the Cold" - Part 2

Well, the load of sleeping bags I claimed from the street have found their way into needy, trembling hands. There is a homeless shelter a few blocks down from me, but rather than walk in and distribute the few I had amongst the throng of malcontents imbedded within, I decided to let them find me. It happened indirectly at a local bar this Sunday.

I ran into a girl named Sarah who bartends close to the shelter. After six o'clock when the free meals are devoured, a few of the more entrepreneurial bums head to her bar for a quick liver fix. I asked her if she would be the judge and a conduit. She said yes.
Later that evening she was mugged and badly injured.

Not by bums mind you. She's OK now. I dropped off the sleeping bags tonight, and I believe some folks slept a little better.

Tonight I was nearly killed by the same thugs that attacked her. Things are getting worse here. I don't feel like writing about it now. There's too many things I want to say let alone scream. I just want to be a good person and there seems to be a growing number of people in this area who are anti-that. I've got to clear my head up before I continue. I'll write more when I don't feel like ranting and sounding unclear about my experience.

Many of you know Esme_11. She use to live down here in New Orleans and a similar thing happened to her. Read about it HERE.

PEACE.

Glad everything is okay with you. Am sorry to hear that things are getting worse where you are. It's hard to believe that this soprt of things could happen in the US!

Take care - and be well!

The 'Big Easy' seems to be getting harder as time goes by.

It must have a hold on you for a reason.

In the future, I may have to call you.........Mayor Dillon:D
