Difficult situation this.

I can understand why McDonald's would do this as it would put off customers from coming in. Homeless man may bring a lot of germs into the restaurant with him.

Did not really like the attitude of the cop as she should have at least asked Mcdonald's to refund the cost of the food.

someone very noble have said, Feed the Hungry and care for needy .. what has become of this world ?

Homeless and hungry ... May be that person when young has paid taxes to government ... end of the day, he was thrown out of the restaurant by government.
Is this happening in a developed superpower with highest literacy rate? This is USA?
Basic human right ... animal rights ... blah blah rights ... ha ha rights.

They called the police when he was out in their parking lot asking everybody for money and wouldn’t leave.

By the time the police got there one customer had brought him inside for a bite to eat.

I thought the situation was resolved as best as it could. The problem is lot of homeless have other issues informing their status like mental health, drug addiction etc

Customers might be put off by such a person so I can understand why McD would do what they did. The police did their job without 'hurting' anybody. Of course the issue of homelessnes is bigger and beyond this event. I think no country, USA, UK, Pakistan or whatever have figured out a perfect cure for that. Even in a welfare society like UK where in theory public housing is available at point of want and subsistence money is given as matter of right we still have people on the streets because of they have all sort of personal issues.

You have to be a little suspicious about the circumstances of being “homeless”. I’m sure it varies from state to state.

Where I am people with little money are given free government lodging and money. Older age given higher priority over younger. However to keep the lodging you cant cause trouble or they will kick you out into the street (which is very tough to do BTW). So it is hard to be sympathetic. They can’t take away your free money. In fact you get a raise to $378/month from about $248/month if you don’t use housing. So that makes me even more suspicious of what the true curcumstances are of these homeless people. I guarantee many see that extra free $130 as more free booze or drugs and jump on it.

People right off the boat with no citizenship take the housing and people who have been living here all their lives as citizens are on the street calling themselves homeless?

I think some states limit this to 5 years for people under 65. So what do people do? They move to a different state and collect there. Travel
to the best dole states. Then bounce between them until the clock resets and they can go back to their original state and start the process again.

If its private property the owner has the right to reserve admission and enforce lawful ejection. Sad but true!

The person taking the video didn't help the cause either by being extremely annoying and even to a certain extent, belligerent. If he had half a brain and even minor speaking skills and used a little bit of tactfulness along with some respect, he might've gotten better results. It's always how you handle it.

BTW, most of these restaurants post signs that don't allow loitering of any kind, which includes pan-handling, begging or bothering any of their customers for money or anything else on their property. Another thing this guy shooting the video probably understood but acted like he didn't.

And one more thing I noticed is a lot of these people going around so eager to film these encounters to post on their YouTube channel are only looking for attention. There's a whole other element of wanting badly to catch a bad scenario unfolding on camera. He was careful not to keep it panned on that cop's face, though. This guy looked like he's been there and done that before and knows when you push cops with cameras in their faces that it pisses them off to no end. Pretty obvious he was looking for a good YouTube clip.

Classic case of cop blocking.
