From Until Proven Guilty by J.A. Jance: "The bums don't bother me...", "Panhandlers pick out soft touch from blocks away." The character was not bothered by bums because he was not a soft touch. I often wondered, prior to becoming homeless, why panhandlers asked me for money when it was obvious others around us had more $$$ than myself. A soft touch?
Among patrons at a late night visit to McDonalds: "There was a genuine bag lady with her multi-layered clothes."
