Yeah, there are no words.

Buddha doesn't like it when homeless people poop, though.

He certainly wouldn't approve of people just sitting around.

THEY JUST NEED TO "GO AWAY". SHARI WOULD LIKE TO SEE A FINAL SOLUTION FOR HOMELESSNESS.

Shari's expression in that pic reminds me of bats and shattering glass.

Hey, I'd piss in her doorway   

I'd leave a fat dump on her doorway with a note that says "the person who did this has a home and an income and thinks you're just terrible."

Yeah, that would also convey the message pretty accurately

There seems to be a correlation between homelessness and invulnerability to fines. Why don't financial penalties work on these bastards?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I don't understand... why doesn't fining homeless people make them go away?

They're SO INCONVENIENT.

Maybe if we just hosed them down they would realise the error of being exposed to the elements and go back where they came from.

The yelp backlash has been unanimous: http://www.yelp.com/biz/from-the-heart-pottery-seattle

As a social worker who has worked with the homeless/mentally ill/chemically dependent for over 10 years, this woman's remarks and attitude sicken and sadden me. These people are human beings. That raggedy smelly man is someone's son, brother, father, and used to play semi-pro baseball. That "crackhead" woman was sexually and emotionally abused as a child and plays the most beautiful Chopin you've ever heard. Maybe this business owner needs to have one of her family members or herself targeted and marginalized before she understands how it feels. I hope she gets some clarity and enlightenment before karma has its way with her. BTW, she also owns a fitness center called "For Every Body Fitness", which I would also recommend boycotting. Or we could pool our money and buy memberships there for every homeless person we can find. That would be kinda awesome.

"I hate this woman because she suggested vigilante justice. She ought to be bashed with a big fucking stick."

wut

The one review from last year is awful too, and makes it sound pretty clear that the chick has some mental problems.

Also, it isn't even a store, it's a BOOTH in Pike Place Market. She's basically a street vendor, throwing attitude about homeless people.

I never know who I'm more unhappy with, the people whose opinions cause internet rage or the people who wait for a mob-designated target as an excuse to be supported in suggesting the horrible things they'd like to visit upon another person.

In this case I'm disgusted with the following, not in order of disgust level:

1. vendor booth lady, for her shitty and insane attitude toward homeless people.

2. The vigilante mob mentality of many of the respondents on Yelp.

3. The writer and editor at the newspaper, for publishing what is almost certainly not an opinion that represents the majority of vendors, from a person who is herself in a somewhat marginalized position (unless things have changed, the 4-wall stores in Pike Place Market have somewhat of an adversarial attitude toward the table vendors, who they view as riffraff) in a way that suggests that it is representative of the business owners there when in fact it was just journalism gold; a crazy person in a position that could be (mis)presented as representative of the establishment.
