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.

@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.
