Question of the Day: Would Society Accept the Leatherman Today?

We already know the story of the Leatherman—who routinely and quietly walked through Briarcliff Manor and the greater Westchester-Fairfield area in the 1800s—and read about on Patch.

But what would happened if the Leatherman were living in today's world?

Litchfield County's The Register Citizen newspaper took a look at the legendary man from today's perspective. The Register Citizen's piece is an interesting analysis of how our society treats the homeless.

How would you react to the Leatherman if he walked by Route 9 today? Tell us in the comments.
