@West Side Joe posted:Thanks. I appreciate the props. I have decided to include a homeless man asking for change on my mezzanine. The only figure I could find, though, was of a homeless vet. I ordered it, but I don't want to insult any vets who might see my layout, so I don't know if I should paint over the part of his sign that mentions he's a vet. See what happens when real life intrudes upon my fairy tale world? 🙄
I'm a vet and it wouldn't insult me in the least. I would bet that many of those with those signs never served a day in their life anyway. I used to work in a copy shop in college, where most of the homeless folks would beg us minimum-wage workers for money, which is why I don't have much sympathy for people asking for money, to this day because of that experience.
