41. But see, the OP did nothing.

The OP only posted about his/her horror of this act here on DU.

The OP did not help the "poor" old guy. The OP did not confront the mean and hateful charity givers. The OP just wants us to know that the OP watched this awful thing happen and was appalled by it. Truly, this is one of the craziest things I've seen on DU, and I've seen a lot.

This is the DU member formerly known as cwydro.
