Certainly there was judgement in Neil's post, particularly at the end.
We are not bound by any law or force to behave any way towards panhandlers. I don't see how one can escape the judgement of others when someone asks for opinions on such a matter of ethics and personal morality. Responses asked for, responses given. No one was evaluating or advising you personally, but to say "anyone" else shouldn't get this goes against the ask in the thread.
I get that we don't always like the judgement of others in such matters. Sometimes we do, sometimes we don't. But people can and should opine in matters of ethics.

Thanks for the response and I edited the post to fix a couple of things that you pointed out.
The second portion of my post was to address other posts and should not have been included.
