You made a good point about the firemen. In this area we have High School teams and bands doing it in the middle of four way stops. Doesn't bother me, but I think all forms of panhandling should be legal.

Although it's sad that we even have to have panhandlers when we have people with millions of dollars just sitting in the bank.
