When you say "this situation", I take it you mean the guy peeing. Yes, I can answer.

Drugs.

Short word, a longer journey to get where he is, and it becomes his reality.
Life on the street. Street friends with hits to numb the brain.
Sleep, steal, forage, find the next hit.
Rinse, repeat.

What kind of drugs do that? Not that the homeless won't/don't do drugs but the ones I've talked to are really messed up by alcohol and maybe malnutrition.

Pj continues to rewrite history. The obviously edited video was from the Daily News & the guardian NOT Fox. Diblasio & the city council are anti-police, so offering the garner family money means nothing.

Heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine, black tar, bath salts, and yes, alcohol.
They burned all bridges. Sucked family dry, mooched, stole, drugs become their friend.
Small hits for a few dollars. Numbs hunger, no need to eat.
Brain damage with every hit, cummulative. You can't save them.
They have to want saving and want it bad. Relapse is a certainty.
A life of pure hell, the drug is king. Go figure.

He may have shy bladder syndrome. I wonder why he chose the middle of the busy street?

I think mental problems are probably a big factor in here too Candy. I would say probably half of the bums I've evr met are the whacked out types, from mildly to outright "get the F away from this guy right now" he's nuts, types. But drugs seem to always come into to play in the end I believe, but I'm no expert by any means.

Unless this picture was taken at the moment he started, it might be photoshopped. I don't see any puddle accumulated on the ground.
