even if they get in my face i can act pretty zoned out (because it doesn't even really have to be an act) they give up after max 3 attempts usually the first though | ||

I don't know anything about it other than deaf people are usually against cures for deafness or curing babies born deaf because they think deafness is just an alternate lifestyle. I also know deaf people rioted at some university for deaf people when a hearing president was appointed / elected however it works. But bums generally just buy drugs. My rule when bums ask me for money for food (very often, there are a lot on High Street, the main street on the East side of Ohio State University) I offer to walk with them to McDonald's to get them a sandwich or something. Sometimes they accept, sometimes not. How would all the blind people find each other? How would they meet without letting outsiders into their cult? How would they read secret instructions and private messages? It's not like they have braille envelopes to send mail to blind people who could decode it. Think before you post, seriously. | ||

He didn't recognize me at all. Recently however, I saw a guy filling up buckets with water from behind a 7-11 so I bought him a pallete of water bottles and a sandwich. If you really want to help, buying what they actually need is the best policy I'm pretty sure he needed the crack more than he needed a bottle of water. The buckets wouldve worked fine. I'm fairly confident homeless people aren't overly picky about the quality of their water. | ||

basically in my two instances it was a woman and then a woman and a man. They both had the same stories which was....their children are in the car waiting and they have no money to get on a bus to go someplace else. They would say that they need money for them and the kids or whatever you "have". The first time with the woman i was worried and said..well you can always come with me and I can take your kids to wherever (then i thought about how dumb that was hahahaha) she wouldnt accept and kept telling me money was fine. It got really fishy and so i left her there alone with her "KiDS" which i never saw BTW. couple weeks later two couples with same story as that last woman and they had kids too this time i was like...why did u leave them there? =p | ||

The worst are those retard salesmen who peddle cheap ass toys and shit. My favorite was the one guy who ignored me when I told him we weren't interested and to leave and went back to bother everyone else in the office. His shit ended up in the middle of the street. Oddly enough, I'm more inclined to toss a few bucks towards a homeless person. yeah, they'll prolly get loaded (and sometimes we help and buy beer !) but shit, like I'd do anything different if I was living on a fucking street. | ||

Most of the articles are written by homeless people, or at least the papers they sell out here in San Francisco are. Also they're usually monthly papers, hence why you got the same paper two weeks in a row  Still bullshit sort of, but it's more respectable then some of the scams that others try to pull. Yea i dont really have a problem with it because it is only a dollar and it helps people somewhat. I read some of the articles and i am still not sure if they are written by homeless people.. | ||
