Homeless becoming too aggressive

All you can really do is ignore them unless you want to take it to the police. If they are following you all the way to your bank that's when it can get dangerous and does become stalker activity. It is not acceptable for ANYONE to follow you, no exception for homeless people either.

I would ask the security guard at the bank to step in and say something. That is crazy! I would be so nervous if that happened to me!

When I worked in the centre of Manchester there was a man who was banned from selling the Big Issue and from being in the city centre due to him being aggressive. If someone ignored him, and there were a lot of Big Issue sellers and beggers, he would start screaming at you and follow you down the road. I saw him grab hold of old ladies to try and scare them into giving him money. On one occasion I did step in but the abuse I received was shocking, I was swore at, screamed at and follwed. I choose not to give to beggers as right now money is tight so charity begins at home, but in the past when I have had money I still didn't give anything to beggers as there are a few charities that I prefer to support for personal reasons.

"slumdog millionaire"in this movie i seen that little kids are employed for begging,and some times the eyes of the kids are taken off with a spoon ,such horrible situation,this arises because of grown up idiots,who do not think at least that they should not give birth to kids when they cant grow them up. Coming to your discussion it is really hard thing to say no ,however we should learn that,becasue being kind in some reaosns it is good but not always ,as when we are in need we have self respect we can not even ask anyone fr a help. In financial matters we should be careful.For beggers it is better we give a little of shelter ,there are organisations which do lot of service for the homeless and people who need it, We as a responsible citizens of the country should atleast tell them to go to such and such place so that they get their least requirements.we should feel thankful to god that he showered on us some blessing ,not to be like them.

If I had a homeless and or anyone for that matter follow me into a bank or anywhere I retrieve money from. I more then likely will alert security. It is not safe to reason with anyone when it comes to wanting money. In fact if I am tempted to give to anyone who is asking and I can't retrieve it easily I simply don't. I won't go rummaging in my purse where my mind is distracted and perhaps this is part of a scheme to rob me. I have heard it too many times, and while I like to give when I can, my life is more important.

I never trust beggars, sometimes they may take really drastic action. When they confront you, are you alone? Are you in a public place? it's best to be in a public place with heaps of people and I reckon the beggar won't approach you. I've had beggars approach me asking for money but I just tend to walk past them and ignore them and they'll go after another victim. But I don't like it when I'm on the bus though, you have no where to go and they'll corner you! I only trust my money with charities that actually help homeless people. The homeless should seek these charities for support, not go after public people out in the open.

I probably will not tell him anything, if i am angry at that moment, i will most likely stab my knife into him than talking to him. If i am in a good mood, i will just walk away after give him a buck or some extra changes inside my pocket. It is all depend on my mood at that moment in time, when i am angry, i just can't control my temper, and i will most likely to lose my cool and turn to violent to solve this problem right infront of me, then it will be the most unlucky day for this homeless fellow, or in the worst case scenario, i just dial the police hoping they will do something about him which normally is not going to happen anyway.
