In Calgary, do you guys have those low-lifes that stand on center medians with signs stating that they are hungry, or they need money or something? Those are the ones that outrage me the most. Looking for employment signs are everywhere, and these bums have to disrupt traffic.

see the post above...i think it'll answer that for you.

and, ill just add, to what i said earlier because you bring up a good point about them walking through traffic at red lights. bugger off, already, and go find a damn job.

Ah, I didn't see that. Yeah, those guys annoy me. At least they haven't tried to touch my car yet, I'd probably get a touch mad.

I've had a couple of bad experiences with panhandlers here in calgary. one guy asked me for change and when i said i didn't have any, he threatened me, I kept walking. another time i went skating with my daughter downtown, parked my car and out of the dark came this panhandler, asked me for change, i gave him a buck or two and he said "is that all you have?" with a real snotty attitude. i was freaked out being with my young daughter... I used to be sympathetic but now i hate panhandlers.
