Default begger at Walmart
A couple of months ago at the Walmart on 441, there was a young boy, clean cut, around 10-12 years of age, that was standing behind a lady that was sitting on the ground panhandling, I can only assume (that has gotten me into trouble b4) she was his mother....I'm sure this made a lasting impression on the young man..."Why work, it's easier to beg"...I know in these tough economic times there are real needs, but like previous threads, I've noticed them being dropped off in vans in groups at that intersection...Not sure what the solution is!...I'm sure it will continue until the well dries up!
