Here we are with a short video I've posted on youtube. The video shows a woman dragging around an even older woman by the hand. The younger of the two women has a container in her hands that has some text written on it about helping people with Parkinson's. The older woman who is being dragged around looks like she either has Parkinson's or something similar.
Then it hit me. WTF? Who are these folks? They had walked by me with a couple of other folks and I had assumed for a few seconds that they were all together. Then I took off my sunglasses and watched these women continue on around Boston's Park Square area scamming people out of money claiming it is for Parkinson's Disease research or something.
I tried to follow and snap a few photos. I did this after speaking with a few other people who after meeting the two lovely old ladies and giving them money, had realized they'd been taken for suckers.
And this by a smiling older woman with even another older looking woman in tow who is obviously living with some medical condition. Were they acting or playing up some things? I think so.
Shame has no value in our society anymore..

Anyone know either of these two women?
