No, I agree with you in that I see both sides. He should get the gear on his own merit, for sure. I'm just trying to balance the positive from the negative here. I agree that the free stuff should go to someone with greater need for one. But you do have to admit at least he is taking a step in the right direction. You could also argue that those who have a bike and no jacket did things the wrong way by not getting the gear before and are paying the price for it now. Either way you look at it someone is going to be upset.

Nice to see someone being generous with their gear they can't use and just giving it to those that can.
