Without getting into whether giving the homeless a buck or two is right/wrong- not giving money to a homeless person, as you walk into a store to cater a birthday party for your dog and his "friends", is wrong. It's Marie Antoinette behavior, especially because it was a caterer with Georgetown prices.
*this may no longer be true in current DC, but was true is a past Dc.

Is that guy who used to sit a block from the Gtown Mall with the sign that said "Yuppie Scum Freeway" still around? I had a friend who was the nicest guy in the world - never bothered a soul - but something about him ticked off that beggar, and every time we'd walk by that area, the beggar would let out a tirade of insults at my buddy. Never did figure it out.
