They need to start licensing these people. Must be a legal resident, can't have felony convictions. If they harass people they lose there license. Also, they have to have permission from the trademark/copyright holders for the character. They can request, but not demand, a tip. If they get pushy, they're done.
There can't be anything worse for kids to see than Spiderman getting his ass kicked and arrested.

Boom box dance in a subway car, then stick a hat in your face & demand payment.
How about you & your ilk leave the rest of us alone? Don't get in anyone else's face & ask for/demand money. Don't yell & scream profanities into your cell phone, while in a crowd. Don't eat & drink in the bus or subway car. No one cares about your drama.
And this was just yesterday!
