    I do a fair bit of volunteer work with the homeless. You're assumptions about the issues these people have is staggeringly ill informed and judgemental. All homeless people arent feckless junkies or pissheads, and on the whole the ones that are didnt have their substance problems until after they had been living on the streets.

Most of the big donations we've received were very discreet. This is a stunt intended to manipulate your feelings about AB. I'd even venture to guess that his manager put him up to it.
      oh just stfu. he can't give money just to do it?

        If just 1 billionare set aside just 1 billion of his dollars and gave 1,000 dollars to every homeless person he could find, he could feed cloth and shelter 1 million people.

          Anyone who believes that AB is a changed human being is deluded.

          We are talking about someone who also flushes money down a toilet.

          This is just a publicity stunt.

            Atleast he didn't flush it down the toilet this time, props to him. Still won't like him until he has a full on persona change.

              i was joking about the crack part LOL.. but i still stand by what i said, if u're capable of standing out there for the whole day holding up a please help me sign then u can still go get a job doing outdoor type work, etc. im not saying they have to go apply for an office job because considering their appearence they will not get the job, but there is still a lot of labor type work where ur appearence wont really matter. they can do that until they have enough money to clean up and move up from there. these people standing holding up a sign is just lazy and want hand outs.

                Good for Broner. It's the first time I've heard of him doing something good.

                  i disagree. they were a junkie first thats how they ended on the streets. u dont become a junkie after being homeless because where the hell would u find money to support ur needs?

                    Yeah I'm aware this is probably for PR and ego but I'm still knowingly buying it and liking Broner more because of this video. It warms my heart to see stuff like this, it's in my instincts like a lot of other people.
