Captain Nerdy Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Yeah...i dont generally give them money! I have offered to walk with them and get them some food, if they asked me for money for food....but then they generally get angry and dont want anything to do with me anymore (which leads me to believe they aren't in it for the food)!

agentplatypus Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I never give them money but sometimes I'll give them food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exo-apollo Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Nope, the government gives them enough. The ones near where I used to work were rude, often times abusive taking swings at local bottle shop owners when they refused them free piss etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VladimirK Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I might if I actually had any spare money myself, (which I actually don't since some fuck decided to kill my student bursary and apparently no one wants to hire for jobs), and they have an animal. I know they're gonna spend it on drugs or alcohol, but who cares? It's not like they have anything really going for them, I would like to be permanently fucked on whatever I could get aswell if I was in their position tbh, I hate folk that whinge about them buying alcohol or drugs. For me, I know I fall for it, but the animal is far more important than them imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padraiglovesyou Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No! One tried to attack me before so he just ruined it for the rest of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkestofFlames Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No. I never give them money. I can guarantee that most of them are just using it for drugs and booze. Most of the homeless people in my area are there by choice- so I am not giving them my hard earned money so they can get high or drunk. I know for a fact that most of the homeless in my area are there by choice because my job requires me to know these things. I am a social worker specializing in helping the homeless find work, homes, and drug rehab. Giving them money is just enabling them to continue living the way they do. I just give them the address to the nearest GR office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadly Moves Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No dont. I treat the homeless like i treat the steet canvas's and the big issue sellers. Avoid them like the plague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonkey Monkey Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 If they are nice about it I will, if I have cash on me that is(which is rarely.) Honestly though If they don't have a strong smell of B.O coming from them they aren't homeless and are just stealing your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava Tonsil Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I don't. I've bought the big issue before a few times and it's shit so i stopped. I'd give to a homeless charity as it may go to good use. But if anyone is going to waste my money on drugs and alcohol it's going to be me!

xxEquilibriumxx Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I give the homeless food on occasions or if I have left over black tar heroine they can have that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Contender X Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I never do. Most of them choose to be homeless, so why should I feel bad? Exactly dude. Why should i give them money when they walk out on everything they had... Even if i did give them money i wouldn't be surprised if they jumped me for everything ive got.

danjohnson58 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No, fuck the homeless. I'm serious. Twice in one day I've agreed with you! Honestly back home it's alright theres not many but here in nottingham theres homeless everywhere or people asking for money for 'the bus/train/tram/taxi' anything, always something.... properly pisses me off, one of the few real wind ups I encounter. Also the same thing with charity, I hate people asking in the street, knocking on doors etc, I don't care for the the 3rd world or some poor little ethiopian kid who I can save with the price of some gum... give me the gum anyday.

MrSpanner Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 If you give money to the homeless, they will probably spend it on booze anyway. So I deserve that money more, sothat I can spend it on booze and Xbox360 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HacksawDoomx187 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No. When I was trying to get my first job back in high school, I was walking into a Wendy's to get an application. There was a bum outside who asked me for some money. I ignored him and on my way out gave him an extra application that I had grabbed:p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBlessing 09 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 A homeless person was with a dog and asked me for a £1 because he was starving, he was outside of a Asda, I gave it to him and he walked into the store. He looked out the window to check if his dog was ok and his dog looked back at him and whimpered. So the homeless guy, that looks starved to near death, bought food for his dog. Makes me want to help some of these people more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning Karma Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I don't. Most are swindles or low forms of con artists. Sure, they might actually be homeless, but they're not gonna use the money I give them to help themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
