Per month, per account: he'll make back that lost $200 billion in no time.

"Thanks for the eight bucks." He said.

Yo. That IS a big old dick, man.

Yeah everyone on reddit loves to downvote instead of brainstorming, fucking idiots

Aside from the obvious shame that we have homeless people and the concept of repelling them like they are pests like cockroaches— it’s kind of sad that beautiful classical/opera music is seen as something that would be an effective repellent

It’s hollow. A thin metal shell.

Not the beaver video I was expecting!

No shit. I noticed loud opera playing a few blocks from my apartment, tons of homeless there. I don't know if its working but I like the idea.

“Titled "Embrace," the 20-foot high statue was unveiled in Boston on Saturday, January 14, in the U.S.' oldest city park, Boston Common. Weighing 309 pounds, the statue sits on the site where the civil rights leader gave a speech on April 23, 1965.”

Regardless of whether it is ugly or not, how can a 20 foot high statue weigh only 309 pounds? Is it made out of marshmallow? If so, it’ll take care of itself after a couple of rains.

But opera doesn't solve the problem is my point those people are still humans that exist in this world. At one point they were babies, kids, and now adults that are still a part of this society. There are assholes out there and some are violent and not great people at times, but still human. Many with severe mental illness and drug addiction.

Responding with neglect and being inhumane does nothing and if anything just exacerbates the problem. They'll still be out there somewhere and the neighbors are still going to have to deal with loud ass opera music instead of us as a society dealing with/helping the homeless.

This has been going on for years. The park by my house plays classical music on the stage speakers all day to repel skaters. The fountain area plays it as well. Ditto for a whole strip mall by my house. Can't really blame businesses for wanting to keep their storefronts clear....

there's one in Orlando same way also a 7/11 blaring music so loud you can hear it several properties over past a you wash it car wash with about a dozen bays

I’m guessing he’s single…

That's uhh. Pretty bad.

Touché

It kinda sounds like you were just being an ass hole to the Church, wouldn't leave them alone and force them to try weird shit to keep you away.

You were probably ruining their property and definitely causing trouble for any handicap people who might be at the church.

This story doesn't make you sound....very great.

I came here to say this as well. They do this in my city and IT DOES NOT WORK. People on crack just don't care.

That sounds lit af.

Catch me and the boys smoking up the platform to some Chopin.

Huh...they're not wrong. That is one ugly statue. It says it's supposed to be the arms and shoulders of the couple, but even knowing that, it looks like it's just arms holding up a penis. Or a sea critter that was found at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, brought to the surface, went all blob-like, and is probably going to be known as the cockfish.

Wouldn't that also drive away customers?

Yeah, I feel like this was the artist more making this about themselves then about King

Because the poors don't appreciate REAL music.
