More People Standing On Busy Street Corners Holding Signs Wanting $ With A Sad Story Mentioning Family Members…

This has happened suddenly. I believe these people have been brought here and dumped. The ones today sign said they were “Refugees” and Had A Brother. Their clothes didn’t match at all, I don’t know if that was deliberate or not. But this stinks to high heaven like it has been orchestrated. All holding large handwritten signs in thick black marker. We are already over run with transients and homeless who are getting into everything that is not bolted shut or locked. There has been thousands of dollars of vandalism to businesses in downtown area where they frequent, big plate glass windows busted out & other damages. Residents are reporting that people are getting in their yards and stealing out of sheds or cars. The boy was talking to his friend online today and his friend said he had to go because there was a homeless guy getting into his backyard.

We have been lucky so far. We usually only have one deadbeat sign holder a year. I remember a woman who used to tick me off. Her sign said that she was a mother with three children and could not work because of the kids. I ALWAYS wondered to myself...if she was standing out there with a sign all day, who was watching the kids? AND if she could stand out there on the side of the road all day, why couldn't she work?

@4meAndyou We have an ordinance against it here but they are doing it at busy intersections and all holding similar-type signs mentioning family members they support. This seems to be orchestrated from a central source and it has popped up suddenly here.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedaboutnThere was well-dressed Mexican woman who held up a sign in OKC at an international grocery store. She was sitting on the concrete right outside the door asking everyone for money. Holding a sign saying she has 5 children and no money. Then we saw 2 people, another well-dressed Mexican lady, long hair in braids holding up a sign saying she had no job & has children & needs money. That was here on my side of town. A man across the street talking to people driving up to Taco Bell gesturing for them to roll down their window. And today this. They are getting very aggressive with this. This city has an ordinance against panhandling. I don’t know how long they stay at the corners till they are told to leave by the police. But I do know they seem aggressive like they are pressed for time. They aren’t the ordinary panhandlers. Some of the ordinary ones are more careful about how they ask for money…usually approach me as I’m going to my car in a parking lot outside of a store.

Same thing is happening here ... All-over California.

This suspicion though has a whole lot to do with ONE certain republican though. You should know that! Even Chicago and New York City has the same problem.

And it's not even the front running republican even. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@cherokeepatti follow the money. It's already been done though.

DeSantis isn't denying it. Nothing is coming out of him on this.

@DeWayfarer Greg Abbott sucks.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@Crazywaterspring agreed, yet slightly different topic. Without DeSantis involvement Texas would have stopped. Not enough money there. DeSantis has national PACs

@Tminus6453 A woman told me on Monday that the homeless in California are being sent here by some government or city agencies. They tell them Oklahoma has better medical benefits for the homeless and give them a bus ticket to come here. Now Oklahoma is cutting back on medical benefits for the poor and it’s likely due to the manipulation of the system by others who don’t have our best interest at heart.
@Tminus6453 Portland is my Beloved HomeTown that I miss very much, where are you located? You could be anywhere North and West of Salem.

I've seen people working together. I was approaching a red light w fews ago and saw two people talking to each other, then they gave the sign to the other person

@iamnikki I hope they enjoy standing out in the heat on days like today. I didn’t see anyone stopping and giving money. And it’s a high ozone level day today, they gave warnings to stay indoors if possible today.

@iamnikki You know if these people are working together maybe it’s a scam like they do over in Europe . The Gypsies from Romania are brought in to various countries and they get a huge amount of money from the people. The men who are running the individual groups are called Gypsy Kings. They take the bulk of the money and build monstrous size mansions. There are streets in some parts of Bulgaria that are lined with one mansion after another

Way to go Biden. I'm sure this illegal will love you in a short matter of time.
Remember the good old days when the communities gave us the permission that looters would be shot.

@NativePortlander1970 We have a Make-My-Day type law where we can use force to defend our lives, homes & property. It’s just a matter of time till it gets used in these cases where people are coming onto our property looking to find something to haul off and sell.
@cherokeepatti I'm ready, just in case.

@MethDozer they may not be as poor as they are portraying themselves to be. There are a lot of professional beggars.
