What can we do to deal with the beggars all over Detroit?

Okay, you did what you had to do in that situation. But, how often do those types of situations arise? I've been on the streets of Detroit for years. Also, San Francisco and San Diego - much, much worse than Detroit. I've had confrontations and been jumped - never in Detroit. That's a problem. But to consider incarcerating and killing people because you or I have had an angry, even ugly and dangerous confrontation, is ridiculous. To apply our anger at all street people because of a few incidents is ridiculous.

I simply shared a story, at no point did I provide any suggestions as to how to handle such people in general.
