Currently acceptable brutalities?
« on: October 06, 2007 »
Designing bus and park benches in such a way that homeless people can't sleep on them. It's so petty...

Or the sight of homeless people sleeping rough outside churches. Always makes me angry to see the huge banner outside St Pancras Church asking for millions for restoration while homeless people are sitting/lying outside on the cold marble in sleeping bags.

These things are maybe not cruel, but future generations might say that we value prettiness and order more than kindness and charity.
