I agree. I'll add, without any pain meds and a dirty knife.

... I have adopted a policy of typically not giving these folks (homeless, highway walkers, etc) any money. I tell them I will buy them something to eat but I won't give them money. I had one "homeless" guy refuse to let me buy him something to eat and said, "I'll just go on down the road a ways..." I have had a couple of guys accept my offer of food. I took another guy to a gas station and I bought gas for a gas can he had with him. Giving them money may happen in a rare case... but not usually.

I pay enough in taxes that are wasted on those sorts. There are plenty of placed for them to get help without harassing me.

There is a guy out our way, always in the same spot on a regular basis. He seems to treat it as a job. Takes coffee breaks at the shop near where he begs.

I've bought some coffee and sandwiches over the years; but I've never given out any money!

I am not a money person either. It's mostly a game to keep in cigarettes, dope, and alcohol. When they are in groups, they always have enough smokes and the brown bag being passed between them.

They make good money...nojoke I knew a few and had a college friend that could go out in red light traffic and pick up a hundred with in four lights...:dontknow: and the relatively new tactic of having a dog is very effective...:banghead:

Always money for cancer sticks no matter what else.

Just last week, our grand daughter thought she did her good deed for the day by buying a homeless guy (who probably wasn't homeless) a sandwich and a soda.
Took the sandwich off her, opened it, then threw it on the sidewalk ! Cussed her out for buying a sandwich he didn't like !!

Wish I'd been there with her :sour:

I just yell, "Get a job!!!" Only not those exact words.:roflblack: Giving advice makes me feel much better than giving food or money.

And then you get the people who complain if they are going to be hung by a brand new rope. You just cannot please all of the people all the time. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

For the paltry sum of $24.95 I can tell you how to avoid these scammers :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
