Derek is not homeless. He was our janitor’s son at Los Ranchos school in the 70’s. Got into pot and alcohol in Jr High and sadly has shaped and controlled his life to just live from paycheck to paycheck never making any progress. Very sad that he injured someone else finally.

Given his appearance, I can see why some of you assumed he is a homeless person but I didn’t see anything in the article to indicate that. Do you know something not there or are you just indulging your presumptions by making assumptions?

I know you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover, but geez!

Hey Derek….we are saving a seat for you. Work the steps….and the keys to the kingdom are yours.

And the City wants to build a 200 bed facility to attract more like him. Vote the idiots out.

He can have the keys to the kingdom but I hope they don’t give him any car keys. I hope the judge makes it a condition of his bail that he should surrender his license and not operate any vehicles. This is a good reminder to have uninsured motorist insurance of your own car.

What makes you think he has a drivers license & insurance. Some among us don’thave it, guess who.

Exactly. Like a judge telling a drunk loser not to drive is going to have an effect. Now the state of California is giving licenses to people who have no business having them. So now, unlicensed drivers will be “licensed”. This state is so screweled!

NO, This Country is so screwed! We the people (citizens) are so screwed. What can be done?
