Portland homeless cesspool- Denver next?

[Irving]

I had to think, but I guess I have seen people get handed money when I'm sitting at a light. I've only seen it 2-3 times that I can think of, but I'm just one guy sitting through one light cycle. If they got handed something every three lights, that'd be more than I would have imagined. Homeless population has been going up around my house recently, and especially the panhandlers at the Home Depot; there are a few that I even recognize now. I don't like it any more than anyone else. It'd be nice if no one gave them money, but some people have a difficult time separating their emotions long enough to realize that a, probably significant, portion of people coherent enough to make signs and ask for money, are willfully in the position they are in and do not wish to change.
