Well what exactly are they going to do? Take them to jail? If I was homeless I'd do something to go to jail just to be inside and get 3 meals. Watch how quickly police quit enforcing this. After putting a couple in your car that haven't bathed in weeks, and taking care of them in jail you'd be done too.
It's sad that there a people that are homeless with real mental problems, and physical conditions preventing them from working. Even MCDONALDs will not hire you if your teeth are all rotten, and you can't take showers weekly. What are they to do? and then there are those that take advantage of peoples kindness.
February 9, 2004 - The Business of Begging
Fox6 On Your Side reporter Ronda Robinson spent a month on the streets to see if Birmingham panhandlers are as needy as they want you to believe. The men she shadowed were not homeless, and one was even receiving disability compensation. One panhandler told her he could make $30-40 an hour. Panhandling an average 20-hour workweek, he's making at least $28,000 a year, tax-free. Fox6 On Your Side suggests making donations to your local homeless shelter instead of falling prey to the business of begging.
I agree, they need to just get a freaking job.
Last night, we went to watch a show at the Fox. Coming out to the car, there was a guy there begging, almost at the steps of the Fox theater. Sometimes it bothers me when I see a homeless person having trouble walking and in obvious pain, but that's the exception for me. Most of the time I know that what they really need is to get their lazy ass up and get a J-O-B.
I went up to chatanooga TN a few weeks back. After parking this lady asked for $1.25 so she could get into the salvation army that night. I felt bad, and gave her $1. 7hrs later we get back to the car, and she is still in the parking lot, and what does she do? Asks for money again with the same story. She didn't even remember asking us that morning. She probably made atleast $200 that day.
