A week ago I had one guy ask me for money for food outside of a gas station / McDonalds duel building.

I offered to walk in with him and buy him a burger if he wanted because I don't have cash on me. He said no, he just wanted cash so he could buy what he wanted and walked away.

The worse is when parents have their kids out there while they look over begging for money to play sports. I have a great idea you want the little fricker to play sports pay for it out your own pocket.

It ought to be legal to shoot any piece of human garbage that begs for money in parking lots. God those wastes of flesh piss me off.

This. Don't treat them like people. Treat them like the addict/scam artist trash that they are.

I had a clearly mentally ill lady approach me today in the albertsons on Essenes lot. She was in full hospital scrubs and boots asking for a dollar then a lighter for half a cigarette. She had just escaped or been released from somewhere

They could really make some money if they carried around a small trash can for people to toss receipts, cups, food, etc. in return for a dollar or two.

Ive noticed an uptick in the ones that wash your window at the intersection.

At least they are doing some sort of service for their dollar. BUT I cannot stand the ones that wash the window without you acknowledging and then get mad when you don’t give them a $1

Gotta have cash to buy drugs. Try offering to buy them a meal. They'll ask you for cash.

I just left the store and a woman asked me to pay her water bill. At least she had something new to ask me.

At the Albertsons on S. Foster & Government, a guy holding a box of cereal approached me in the store asking me to buy the cereal for him. That's the last time I went to that Albertsons.

The only one I gave money to was a guy who had a sign reading, " I Need A Beer". As a beer connoisseur this reached my heart and I would give him a few bucks.
