All Roadside Panhandlers should be banned

   December 14, 2006

panhandlerI’ve tried to stay silent on this issue that the County is considering, but since I’m known for speaking (writing?) my mind, I might as well give my thoughts.

All roadside begging for money should be banned – whether the beggers are homeless or some charity or some furniture company that’s always going out of business. The PNJ shouldn’t use homeless or anyone to sell its papers at busy intersections. It’s dangerous and a nuisance. It has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
