The bums didn't lose

Bar code them and inject rfid tags like dogs.

Nah....lets just let them abide dudes....it's their world too....and the folks who are handing the dosh over are making a judgement call.

Who the fuck are we to say "it's not right! They'll just spend it on booze!"

Maybe they need booze to get bye or drugs or coffee or cheese n onion fucking crisps!!!

The dudes are generally fucking homeless and on the streets!!! Sure there maybe one or two scammers but I don't believe the majority are.

I have a bowl that I throw my coppers into everyday...or when I round em up from everywhere else in my flat....when the bowl gets full I count the cash into wee money bags. Then I take those coppers (which I have not missed) and give it to the first homeless person I see.

I give it unconditionally....I tell the dude, "there's maybe five quid here mate...spend it on you".

No issues with what he/she does with it guys..they're living their own life...not my choice and not my style perhaps...but it's their life...not mine and I cannot judge anybody on this planet. I am not a God.

Peace.

Actually if I have change in my pocket I usually give them money becayse it probably means more to them than it does to me.

A few weeks back I was walking home from the station.

I walked round a corner and there was a guy lying on the floor.

I asked him if he was Ok.

He said he had fallen down, he had a bad hip, and was waiting for an ambulance.

I asked if he wanted someone to wait with him.

I sat there with him as he talked about how he hurt himseif, I listened as he talked to someone on the phone who screamed and threatened that if he didn't turn up with "the money", I lent him my phone to talk to his Mum when his ran out of charge, and listened as she asked wht have you done this time.

When the ambulance came I took my phone back and went on with my journey home.

I left him and his life to his own business.
