Few young lads outside Tesco (Savile St) asking for money

[KM0111 10]

I've been going to the Pure Gym near the Savile St Tesco and have noticed more than a couple of times that there are a few young lads stood near the bus stop opp Tesco who walk up to everyone walking out of the shop and ask for a pound or two. And there are not homeless people or tamps but some guys in their 20's looking for some easy money. I go to the gym almost everyday and have to face these guys while waiting to catch the bus, which is quite annoying.

They weren't eastern European by any chance were they? They may be the same lads that asked me for money as I entered/left the Wiicker pharmacy not long ago. Every time this happens ring the police's non emergency 101 number; the police will come and move them on.

Now don't call me racist but it was mostly a group of young black males that sit near the bus stop as a group who do this. I just pretend to look in my pockets for change and say sorry pal but what I really want to say is pi** off lol

Well a friend of mine was eating at Pizza Hut on High Street and a guy walked in asked him for money (he was sat by the windows near the entrance) for money cuz apparently it was his b'day.

 

I could call 101 next time this happens to me, but I don't think it's right to waste the police officer's time for a small matter.

Why aren't the police moving them on?

I would get em phoned,they might start getting aggressive eventually.[ the beggers,not the police:)]

When my dog begs I smack it on the nose with a rolled up newspaper. Someone should do the same with these individuals.

Are black people more dangerous than other people?
