Pigs of Glasgow
by ThE BoY
It was last night when I was going to a gig in Glasgow. I was walking to meet my friends when I came across a man that was just sitting on the ground, at first I thought he was just a hobo but when I looked at him he was well dressed, clean and shaved. I went up to him and asked him what was wrong. The man was so thirsty he couldn't speak, me and my friend took him 2 the railway station where we got asked a security guard for some help. He radioed the transport police when then said "no we can't do anything for him please escort them out of the station Fascist pigs! I mean what kind of a world is it that an 89-year-old man who has no home and has just been released from hospital can't get help from the police! They didn't even offer to give us the number of a hostel or anything.
The old man started to complain about pains in his chest and he was very breathless so we went out of the station and called him an ambulance, it came and took him to hospital.
The main reason I am writing this article is to show my complete and utter outrage at the way this man was treated. It was night, -5 degrees and he was sitting on the ground. We couldn't leave him there by himself and when we looked for help, where was it?
If these so called friends of the people wouldn't help this old helpless man who the hell will they help. I didn't have much respect for the police before but I certainly do not have any respect for them now.
I just wanted to voice my opinion.
