You have to assess each situation independently. After I posted yesterday, we went to my brothers house. On the way I came upon a very busy and popular intersection, Irving park and manheim road (Ohare Airport). I seen a guy walking around ahead. When he came around the cars in full view I figured right away this guy was playing the homeless card real good! No shoes! About 4 pairs of socks on. What looked like 3 pairs of pants, last one turned inside out. Ratty hooded sweater, worn correctly which was odd considering the pants were on inside out. And socks for gloves!
Now this guy was playing it for all it was worth! I'm sure he has collected more than enough to buy a pair of used shoes for a $1.
Why wear pants inside out? Unless you are trying to make it look good!
Definitely had no problems moving around in traffic, so not disabled!
Even his eyes looked like they had life in them. This guy definitely didn't have mental problems because he knew where to be and how to beg!
my daughter felt bad for him. I told her you have to be careful who you feel bad for. I mentioned all the above and she thought about it, and said oh ya! She is very thoughtful and caring, but you can't be blind to the obvious! The only ones that I seen give any money were from 2 SUV's both higher end, Audi and BMW.
I've seen true homeless before, this was not it! Even my son said he probably has more in his account than I do!
