[Tom Earp]

Many Many Times.

When I owned a Liquor store, this guy would sit with a sign and say work for food. Hell, He never worked and would bring the food to My store and trade for cheep wine.

Chili Willie wanders the streets and gets far afield, I would never consider giving Him Money and He doesnt ask. Has More Money than I do!

Setting at the bank one morning reading a book when some dude comes up to my side window say He just got out of the Nut House and needed money for His Medication, right, what kind of drugs.

Always have people coming up or to the store saying they need money for gas. BS.

Had a guy scare Little Old ladys when He came up to their cars at the Hair Butcher place next door want to give a relgious publication and would ask for a donation. Ran his ass off.

A guy in KC was pan handleing at the Country Club Plaza and the city made a City Ordinance against Him!

Hell, He was seen in many citys in the Mid-West area.

These people many times are just scammers and can work but make a better living not working and they dont want to.

I am not saying, that all people are like that so do not take it as such.
