Anyone else starting to notice that the people begging for money appear to be getting younger and younger? Hell, some of them don’t even look homeless. Unless you have a mental illness or you’re lazy as frick there is no excuse to be homeless for an extensive period of time. shite Burger King keeps a “now hiring” sign up year around. If I was homeless I would get a gym membership to a planet fitness so I had a place to shower, find a fast food place to work at in the area, save up money to get a piece of shite vehicle for less than $1000 so I had a roof over my head, all the while looking for a second job or better paying job, and I would continue busting my arse until I could afford rent somewhere. It’s honestly not that fricking difficult to rise above these circumstances if you have at least a few brain cells or common sense

There's your problem.

By definition, 50% of people are below median IQ.

Then remember that half of those people are even dumber than that.

Where you at? I cannot imagine a reason someone would wear a parka in the summer.

Texting on cell phones... chain smoking $6/pack cigarettes. People who give them money are fricking idiots.

Meh. I’d give $5 to the clean shaven dude before I give it to the dirty hobo who a)wears a a hobo costume or b)has been there for awhile and has no real inclination to better him/herself

After getting burned years ago I never give money to the homeless. The only time I have was when a guy had a sign that said “I need money to get high”. I figured atleast he was honest.

The parka in the summer might be a legit indication of mental illness.

Seems easy to get out when you’re not in that position.

Give money to a local co-op. They’re going to do a better job vetting beggars than you’re able/willing to do.

When you run across a beggar, direct him to the co-op you just donated to.

I saw one in front of OLOL earlier, with a clear throw away poncho. Nothing will stop them from taking everyone's free money...not from me though.

The guy always at 610 at Elysian or Franklin pisses me off. (He rotates, last four years)
fricker plays on his iPhone, drives a car and lives in the area yet begs daily. He said he makes $100 a day.
Lazy frick.
