If you were homeless and desperate for food, would you care how you got it?

The previous bus stop bench question reminded me of something that happened a few years ago. I was living in Florida, and on my way to school there was a homeless man sitting on the same bus stop bench every morning. He held a sign, I was never able to read it, I assume it said “Homeless…need money/food” or something like that. So one day driving by I threw a granola bar out the window, it didn’t hit him it landed near his feet. A rude act no doubt, but the guy ate that day.
