    Is it wrong to ask a homeless person for money?

    I was walking into a building the other day and this guy had asked this homeless person if he could have some money. I'm not going to lie... At first I was laughing really hard because it was funny the way the man had asked him. Then I started to think about it, and I started to wonder how many other folks have tried that?

    For individuals who live off of other people's generosity, surely it would be okay to ask for a quarter if you needed to make a call or something. But obviously they are worse off than many of us, so it would be stupid to ask for money just for the hell of it.

    I know but man I couldn't stop laughing. The homeless person told him "What the hell... I should be asking you for money." I couldn't help but laugh.

    I had a very well-dressed man come up to me and ask me for money in the mall parking lot in Fort Worth after Ike demolished my house. I gave him $5 bucks and wasn't mad at him. Does that count?

    I've always been kind of a pacifist. When I was a kid, my father told me, "Never hit anyone in anger, unless you're absolutely sure you can get away with it."

    I did that once before. I jokingly asked for some money after he asked me, and he gave me a dollar out of his cup. I was pretty surprised, but I gave it back and gave him another dollar.
