STEVE, if you ever need to talk just PM me and we can speak a little more openly than we can on this Forum. As painful as it is you may be on the best course for you and your brother. I have experience in this area and I also have no regrets.
The only people I ever see hawking money is the people at the end of the exit to Walmart on 441. If you really wanna help them buy them a meal don't give them cash.
Watch for yourself when the people at that corner change shifts. Keep an eye on the vehicle that they take their break in. Not all of them are running a racket but some are. I want to use kind words and not paint with a wide brush. Some are legit some are total Fugazy's.
No matter how you slice it homelessness is a painful area to deal with when you have no background on how to help without getting hurt. I didn't know until lately about the situation in The Ocala Forest. Rough to say the least.
