So do some walking vendors have licences - the two patty guys, gem the fruit lady, the original cigareeete guy - to name just a few???
They can lock up some of those fruit, bracelet and aloe guys - there are some real creeps mixed in that bunch that ruin it for the rest.
I hate the fruit guys but the worst Ive seen is the stockie (crack head) who, while foaming at the mouth, virtually attacks people with aloe. He will be carrying a chunk of aloe that was ripped up from the roots, stolen from a neighbor's yard up in Redground. He than will find a naive victim and start slathering them down with aloe as they are trying to get away from him but are too polite to immediately walk away. He will then demand money and if the first request isin't met he will become more demanding and will threaten the victim. They tourist will hand him money to get rid of him. As soon as he gets enough for his fix he will toss the aloe onto the beach and head straight for his connection.
