    Should we offer these kids tents and blankets and a warm shelter?
    They seem to be freezing their bums off out there.
    They have tea and kindly offer this, but they seem to lack every basic comfort.

    I don't like kids in general, but it would be nice if you were more specific about which kids.

    It makes chuckling at their misfortune a lot more fun for me.

    I belong to the missing 0.9%. We're a proud people, why are we so often left out of the discourse? Don't oppress us!

    They have Starbucks, Coca Cola, Apple and probably Mickey D's to help them out in fairness!

    EDIT: Are we talking about the Dame St. Kids?

    You're gonna have to be a little bit more specific. As good as we are here on AH, most of us haven't mastered mind reading just yet.

    In fairness it's not like they are stuck there. It's voluntary. But flair play to them and fair play if you want to operate a hot tea supply chain.

    Those suckers and their "we don't have snug beds" protests. If only they had a reason to get out of bed.

    I mean I get it in the US, but not in other countries.

    You do realise there are like real homeless people living on the streets that can't go home to mommy and doddy when their little protest is over? How about you help those guys first?
