From one of the photo captions: "Harrington, who is in his 20s, said he met Whitehead, who was already homeless, online and came to Oregon to be with her even though he knew they would be sleeping outside." This example doesn't particularly generate sympathy for the so-called homeless. Why didn't the girl move to be with him? Why is she on dating websites instead of career development websites?  I really don't care what the answers to those questions are -- people can do what they want -- but don't make choices that leave you living on the street and then complain that nobody will provide you with a cheap apartment.
