canvassers in Davis Square again

[perich.livejournal.com]

Springtime brings out the unemployed students canvassing for donations throughout Boston. This weekend, they've hit Davis Square heavy. I could stand outside the Somerville Theatre and count at least six just by turning my head.

They appear to be soliciting donations for a group called Children International. They also seem (in my opinion) a bit more aggressive in getting pedestrians' attention this year.

Offered without judgment* or comment**.

I usually just give them a crazy stare and say "yes, I have lots of money to give you. And candy too. You just have to get them for me out of the back of my van."

That gets rid of them.
