in my experience, the people who are truly homeless do not tend to beg. they're the ones you see sitting quietly in a parking lot somewhere, with a cart or bicycle, minding their own business. those hit me the hardest. there's this one 'kid', probably in his 20's, in Leesburg who sits outside a building near DQ. he reads, (no phone) and looks pretty downtrodden. i will openly give to him, buy a meal, or whatever because i know what it's like to be down on your luck & just trying to get by. someone like him will never turn down goods, some food or even a friendly smile, & ive never seen him ask for $$.

Yes I donate. I am from California and this is nothing. Every street corner is covered with people holding cardboard signs. I pretty much assume they wouldn’t be there unless they really needed it. But that’s just me.

Early in the pandemic, Trump gave us $2400 (I think) for sitting on our butts, so I decided to give more to the people who are actually working, and I have kept doing that. |

They tell you not to fed the animals because they will become dependent on hand outs the same goes for the homeless ..

Meth is a great destroyer of teeth too and there is a connection between meth addiction and bulimia. |

As I specified - this girl's face was clear. Only her teeth were bad. Bulimia can cause that. |
Giving money directly to "homeless" people keeps them poor and dependant and handouts. Instead give to charities that work to end the reasons they are destitute.
Of course most beggars are not homeless. |

And I need a billion bucks, should I start a gofundme campaign? I’m honest too.
