Nice to see. I wish there wasn’t a cynical part of me wondering how a grown man in a country crippled by social programs can claim to never have owned shoes. I’m sure he was greatful and used them to walk to a shelter and get help and didn’t sell them within the hour for crack money. Sigh… ---

I thought I read an article this week in which they outed the recipient for niether being homeless or shoeless, and that is a choice he makes to sit shoeless on a street corner… also, were those used boots, as in purchased by his employer as uniform requirements, and donated after replaced… or did the guy go out and specifically buy this guy boots? kind of puts a different spin on the merit of the actions…
