    believe it..

    There was a homeless man that was killed downtown a few years back and he had over 3 grand in cash on him.

    You live in Detroit?

    This week this young white kid rolled up on me at the gas station lookin' like he just staggered out the ? house. He said, "Excuse me sir. My car just stalled and I need enough money to catch the bus home.

    8-| I said, "I just put my last dollars in my gas tank homeboy."

    You shovel me some bullshyt...I shovel it right back.

    I ride the MTA in NY. Most times, cats just on some ? . I give a dollar to hustlers on train, tha either selling some ? , dance something fierce, or tell a mean joke. I got no issues helping folk out that put in the work to help themselves.

    ? those other leaches, man.

    The ost a homeless person will get from me is one of those dollars shots at the counter and a 35 cent bag of chips....... But I've never been in the mood to give them the chips, so they just get stuck with the shot...............

    If i got it I give, never a problem and I don't give a ? what they spend it on. A lot of time when I know they trying to collect for a beer I'll just bring them out a beer. Being homeless is not a requirement to get money from me. If you ask and I got it then I give it... friend/fam/stranger (shrug)

    When I was 13 a homeless man asked me for money cause his kid was sick. I gave 2 bucks which is alot for 13 and he threw it back and said " I cant buy ? with this"

    but these old ladies saw what happened and started beatin him with umbrellas all while quoting scriptures to him.

    One day me and my girl was walking downtown on our way to get some lunch. And this dude was approaching us gettin' ready to beg. He said, "Excuse me but I dont mean to..." Then I grabbed my girls arm and was like "RUN RUN!!" While we ran from him I looked back and he had a confused expression on his face. LoL

    I remember I went to Kmart to pick up some car cleaner & my uncle was in the car. So I gets out & was walking towards the store. This girl walk up on me & asked me "did I have any change to spare because she just got kick out her momma house with her lil kid". So I'm like "mmmmm I might have a lil change to spare after I buy my item". So I come back out the store & she approach me again but as I seen her from walking from her car, her boy friend/baby daddy was sunk down in her passenger seat. Im looking like "these 2 bish ass ? mane". Bish didn't get shss except the Heisman trophy pose from me

    I have one time that I can remember, but never again because of some ? that happened that one time. I was coming outside to my truck after work and was in a good mood, so I was like ? it, and gave a dude some change. Tell me why I went to the gas station across the street to get gas, and the same dude tried to get money out of me. This was like 5-10 minutes after I had given him money outside of my job smh. I ain't even say anything to him, I just looked at him and walked inside. Man, I went in the store and bought everything and came out with visible food and cash in my hands so that ? could see me. ? that ? ....

    Now, I just look at them and keep it moving. I be eating tacos and ? in the truck and all of that - I don't give a ? no more.

    BUT DONT YOU FORGET THIS SCRIPTURE


    Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
    Hebrews 13:2
