I'm genuinely trying to figure out why people hate on homeless people so much

I mean like,
I hear people say because they're addicts, deadbeats etc...

But that's not necessarily true,
I've heard of people being homeless and they were none of those things,
They just happened to fall upon tough times dues to a really bad turn of events ;/

Yep, it can happen to anyone, just like becoming chronically ill. People think they're settled for life of they are born healthy and work hard, but that can change in an instance.

The thought that if someone is down on their luck, it must be their own fault is just an extension of that ignorance.
