Spanish heir "out of touch"?

Spanish anti-royalists are really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Now they're criticizing Prince Felipe for...apparently not immediately realizing upon exiting a friend's funeral that a woman extending her hand was a beggar and shaking her hand instead of giving her money. Shocking!  To be honest, I, unlike the Prince, usually ignore beggars completely.  I suspect most of the Prince's critics do too.  Is that what they would have preferred?

I'm no fan of the Spanish monarchy, but I can't understand this nonsense. I guess he didn't understand the situation. And I must say European beggars are quite rich by the Brazilian standards... The critics never saw something like poverty...
