A heartless display of intruding on an individual's privacy, as little as he has.

I agree. Never have never will. There is enough misery in this world that is covered by others, I don't need to add to the library
Homeless Vet? Where do you get that? Most "homeless Vets" are neither homeless nor Vets. They are losers playing any hook they can come up with. Of course that's only my humble opinion. Based on experience.
Without an editorial purpose, you are exploiting human misery, and the shadw is indicative of sloppy attention to what is in the frame. Sorry, I can't be positive about this one.

Calling people like this man “Losers” shows a complete lack of humanity and empathy and is disturbing and disgusting, whatever your “retired cpo” means.

Privacy??? He is lying down, on a public street.

Why assume he’s a “homeless vet”?

FWIW, prior to the pandemic related joblessness here in Colorado it has been noted through roundups and surveys that a large percentage of homeless people living on the streets of Denver are vets who are often mentally disturbed, alcoholics, and/or drug addicts. I suspect some of the draw to this area has to do with the presence of a regional VA hospital in Denver.
