The intersection begging here in Fairfax is out control, and most of the people doing it get dropped off and picked up by a van. |

Yes it seems like there is some sort of central command and control structure behind this. I kind of wonder if people are taking advantage of immigrants and at risk youths to kind of go out and panhandle to collect money then they give them back a portion of it? I’ve seen really aggressive cases of it here with people literally setting up tents at busy gas stations and they are very territorial. I’ve seen this one lady in a wheelchair being pushed about a quarter mile away. I don’t see them there anymore but who knows what happened. Really I’d be more interested in getting to the bottom of it. It could be a modern day undercover story about infiltrating these bum networks. My guess is that it’s probably not going to happen because these people are hooked on drugs and probably forced to work by some group. |
