I'm not talking about the few homeless adults that hangout by Walmart. These were young families with children running around. I don't know how to describe them without offending someone, but I would say that there is a possibility that they may have not been Americans. I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this? If so, who are they, why are they here, is this legal, and might their number increase?

If you feed them they will stay!
It may seem crude just ignore them DO NOT donate.
I also no longer donate to food pantries seems to perpetuate the problem.
Unfortunately, it isn't against laws to panhandle.
At one time panhandeling was asking for a donation you received something like pen or pencil now it's just plain begging.
