1st homeless guy i've seen carrying. *PICS*

[yongxingfreesty]

on my way to the shil0h indoor shooting range and I see this guy at the light.
dont know if he was serious or not. way too hard to tell.

he is carrying something in small of back, but couldnt get a picture. saw the print and the clip to the the holster.

anyway, he was a nice guy. we gave him $2 bucks for us to take a quick picture.

First it's a homeless guy, he said he got raped, and still I see no gun.

gun is at 6 o clock, couldnt get a picture of his back until he walked away. tried to get my phone on camera mode, but was too late.......cars were already honkin at me.

How do you know he was carrying?
I see a LOT of things in people's belts that aren't pistols.

I find the sign confusing.

Actually, I find this thread confusing.

Actually, I find this thread confusing.

To say the least.

I guess there is a first time for everything...First time I've "seen" a homeless guy carrying a firearm, and the first time I've seen you, Matt G...3,481 posts, and I've never seen you before.

Just cause he is begging doesn't make him homeless.

The lack of a backpack, heavy coat, blankets and cart don't support the homeless label.

 

[yongxingfreesty]

the shirt is white, see through and very thin.
it was 100% a gun of some sort when you can see the tight shirt wrap around the gun.

what really confuses me is the smiley face on the cardboard.

maybe this is a civilian who lost a bet and had to stand on the street with this sign? maybe he is telling the truth? i dont know.

his backpack and shopping card was on the median. lots of stuff missing in the picture. second time ive seen this guy, only this time I actually read the sign.............

in this case, what i really meant was homeless=bum=begger=crackhead,etc.

Just to frame the discussion, are you saying, "Hey guys, I saw this dude trolling for change at the intersection and noticed he had a gun SOB. What got my attention in the first place was the wacky sign he was carrying. Here's a picture that I took. Sorry I didn't get one of the gun, but traffic was too bad for that."?

 

[Intune]

Um, yeah, that's what he's saying. This one's a little too disturbing before the first cuppa java. Maybe even after two or three. That sign, whoa... Forget the pistol, I'd be lugging around a rocket launcher, SAW & a small nuke.

I think what happened is he saw this guy with that weird sign and just had to post it. So he made up the gun part so it would be "gun-related."

 

[yongxingfreesty]

that is what it looks like.

i would stop by again if i lived in that area. he is in the NW side of houston.

290/jones intersection ?

I heard the post office is now giving out those signs for free to people mailing their tax returns.

Just to clear up some confusion about the sign. There was a serial rapist running around in the greater Houston/Galveston Area who raped a number of men. The sign is a play for sympathy on that.

 

[Fish828]

this is pretty strange.

Next time you see him, tell him that the Health District has free programs for victims of sexual assault. If he is truly a rape victim he doesn't just need $2 (especially if he can afford a gun, holster and ammo). He needs psychological help. That's the best favor you can do for him. I think that would be the High Road thing to do.
