re: Airline and Coursey intersection beggars

I give them razor blades

Offer them a job, they’ll turn and run

Had some of the fellas swarming the intersection of Joor and Greenwell Springs on the way home from work. The guy came up to my window and gestured, I nodded "no" then he gestured again for me to give him money then I waived him off. He then walked up closer to my window and mean mugged me for like 5 seconds straight while I gave him awkward Larry David-esque looks.

do they leave their trash there too?
Still some sitting at sherwood off of I12. Cups and shite, pisses me off.

Government contract beggars, no long term commitments, no health insurance, no retirement funding. Pretty good return on tax payer investments.

This is very true. They move around, too. The wheelchair guy that used to be on College was in front of the Wal-Mart across from the old Walk-Ons on Coursey a few months ago. That fricker has one leg and talks to himself. I know he didn't travel that on his own.

Now that I think about it, he hasn't been seen in a while. Wonder if he dead.
