I'm not saying that the man that was sleeping there was a psycho, but he COULD have been.

Would I allow a homeless person to sleep on my backyard or use my bathroom? Sorry but probably not but I would give them a meal and direct them to a shelter. To me, that's doing my part without sacrificing my safety/security. In this day and age, you never know if people are good people who got themselves in a bad situation or crazy people who could kill your whole family if you let them in your house. Call me cynical but I've read too many horror stories.
I couldn't agree more. It's a major security issue to have a random stranger taking up residence in the storage lockers. If I had walked into that situation, I would have been freaked out...talk about feeling ambushed. Then I probably would have turned around, walked out and called the cops. Nothing against homeless people, just against people sneaking into places they shouldn't be and making me feel unsafe on my own turf.
