Person who accosts and threatens you in the food court =/= homeless. Why does "homeless" need to be the descriptor that people always use to refer to people asking for money in public? Lots of people don't have permanent homes and it's kinda disgraceful that there is a long discussion in here conflating homelessness with threatening public behavior. No shade intended to the OP, who had a scary experience.
