Nothing owned by News Corp is credible

I don't csre what you believe, but again I seen it first hand panhandlers make lot more money then people know. Why the do it and promise the majority of them aren't homeless or drug addicts. They are your run of the mill con artist. Hell some making more then you and I at our day jobs.

If I had no self respect I probably give it a try. Sure beats working some of the shit jobs I have had to do to make a living.

lol okay buddy. I’ve volunteered with the homeless, who panhandle in many cities I’ve lived in, and I’ll tell you right now the majority of them are not con artists. I don’t think I’ve ever worked with someone who pandhandled who had somewhere to stay besides a shelter or some tent in the woods. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

I knew many that had houses and cars and lots of money so yes I do know what I am taking about.

Much like fox news, you are not a credible source. If you want people to believe you, you're going to have to do better than "trust me, bro". You may very well believe what you're saying, but why would anyone else?

Would you believe me if I said, I don't know, all the Italians in Astoria make a ton of money in elaborate underground boxing rings? I mean, maybe you would since you seem to believe Fox news, but you shouldn't because I just made that up .

Yup, isn't that crazy, you downvoted what I said within 45 seconds of it being posted but have ran out of steam to argue and convince everyone you have a novel idea about homelessness and somehow the homeless are actually taking advantage of you.

I sincerely hope you take a moment to think about why you decided this was going to be your hill.

Than*

Aside from that, maybe be grown up and actually follow through with your argument rather than downvoting the moment you realize you're being ignorant.
