Cause if he is using that free access from our tax dollars, he should lose it too, as well as all the others in his building.
I know what you were saying, but the man had told you that his cable had been cut. The fact that tax payers were paying his cable wasnt his fault. He wasnt even aware of it. You made wrong assumptions tward a guy who has a ligit argument. He was told his cable was free, and so it should be. Why the big deal? The only problem I see, is the wrong people were paying for it, and could be changed easy enough by changing the name on the bill.

Obviously, he was posting from his home, not out on the street...So IF he's being harrassed, having his rights denied, etc. that he's claiming...He's not as homeless/hard put as he's trying to lead people like you to think he is...
Now your just lying. He never said he was homeless. Not even close. The whole argument is he was told he gets free cable. And so he should. They should honor what they said, regardless of his income. I dont care if he's has a million dollars, a deal is a deal.

And that's how I took OD's post to mean as well...That he wasn't as put out/hard pressed as he was pretending to be...And possibly access the internet at tax payer's expenses.
Why are you making assuptions about a man you dont even know?? Do you always look for the negitive in folks you just met?

I do find it interesting, that you immediately jump in to support him and such, to justify the abuse of tax payer's dollars to give people free cable access though...
I have justified no such thing. I dont think tax payers should flip the bill for his cable. I think his housing comish should, as he was led to believe they were the entire time. Your bitching about something he didnt even know was happening. He was told he gets free cable, and he should.

Makes me kinda wonder if you're one of those individuals yourself...Thinking the world owes you a favor and living off the hard work and sweat of the tax payer's themselves thinking it's your right to spend our money any way you wish to.

You might as well think that, it seems you assume things about people you dont know at all, alot.
