Veteran gets More than a Magic Trick #4
I came across a video on my Facebook wall of a US veteran living on the streets of Las Vegas holding a sign asking for anything to help him out. Usually I'm not the one to just hand out money generously. I've even heard of people dressing up and fake being homeless. However in this video there is a man, Anderson, that has heard a lot about the veteran McKracken and decided to come out to see him for himself. At first you're trying to understand what it is that he is doing trying to help the veteran. Then Anderson takes the sign from McKracken and begins to rip it up. The veteran, confused and uncertain, stands there wondering why is he doing this. Then he asks him if he some kind of street musician and when Anderson opens his sign, money falls out revealing that he never ripped the sign up. Generoulsy giving money to this veteran. Its good to see that there are people out there are still willing to help people in need without asking anything in return. After their encounter Anderson put up a donation account to help McKracken into his own apartment with food and clothes to help get an interview and have a life once again. To me this is a very cogent article, the only thing I found fallacious is me not being generous enough to those in need.
