Lafayette police, special panhandling detail to crack down on roadside beggars

Beggars not wanted!
For one of the most Catholic cities in the state, this seems like a harsh position from the mayor. It seems as if Lafayette fancies itself as the land of milk n honey, where superficialness and pretentiousness are more important than actually caring about down and out people. It is not as if you see them on every street corner.

Bums and beggars can get fricked.
No excuse for not being able to get a job in today’s economy.

Looks like the beggars union didn’t have enough sway.

Wood shampoo is the cure.

Are they gonna put them in rehab or just move them to the black side of town?

Just say you don't like Lafayette. You spent a whole bunch of time and energy to shite on a city you are biased against. Did Lafayette go knuckles deep on you at summer camp or something?

bullshite, they were starting to show up everywhere. Get a frocking job, bums! Most of them are young, healthy looking men.

Here is a solution for you since you are so caring for these people. Why don't you raise money and buy them bus tickets to Houston so they can flourish in another society which is free from the superficialness and pretentiousness of Louisiana.

Don’t let them fool you. They are not down and out, homeless or on hard times. They are all addicts and junkies. When you give them money it’s going to be smoked, shot, snorted or drank. Do not enable them as they will never quit begging

You and the Catholic Church feel free to take them in.
It’s not the City’s job to do so.

I think it has more to do with the drug dealing ring they uncovered. Dealers were posing as panhandlers.

You are defending beggars? I simply cannot see that side of the argument.

BR is just as bad if not worse

They just stand there and wave at you. I won’t even wave back. Get your arse to the hiring centers. There’s at least 2 of them on north side off of the Evangeline Thruway.

Except for something called mental illness.

The only time I ever gave money to a panhandler downtown (was drinking on the Marley's patio), I asked what he was going to buy with it. He said a cheeseburger from McDonalds. I asked him to bring me one back, and he never did. Kinda fricked up IMO.
