On another note regarding the homeless...the shelters I've worked in had a different priority system...I imagine it would at some point come down to man v. mom and kids, but whenever I've seen it in practice its been regarding the actions of a person. For example (I've seen this a couple times) if a guy shows up smelling like booze, he'll often get turned away. Likewise, if the person who runs the shelter saw the person sitting on the corner all day, they're likely to get turned away as well. Of course, this experience has always been in Christian shelters where staying clean and looking for a job is a requirement if you want to stay in the shelter.
