Some people like to weave their hatred into every topic imaginable.

I fail to see how that has anything to do with the current 'act' or 'shtick' of the panhandlers in town.

Does commenting on the 'my wife's water broke' story (heard twice at WalMart) imply one is anti-infant?
Does commenting on 'Hello, sir - I am not a crook' (heard at HEB) imply that one is pro 'crook'?
Does "I've run out of gas" heard from the same guy at Sprouts and HEB imply a prejudice against folks who use gas?

The ragged cardboard sign and crossing oneself at you walk up and down the same intersection every day has as much validity as the ragged cardboard sign proclaiming you are a Vet. You may well be a Christian and a Vet but it's a ploy. Commenting on it does not mean you hate Vets or Christians. In fact, one can contribute to legitimate charities involved with these populations.

Tis the season to be a sourpuss.

I think there is nothing wrong with hating on people using Christianity for personal gains such as money.

Sorry to those who's real but I give nothing to panhandlers.

To those who's really down on their luck, punch a fake for me.
