Freemindsanctuary, yes we do judge, and it is part of being human, as I myself, have done so in the past.
We see the old man in a wheelchair, or the old drunkard on the street corner, reeking of drink, or the homeless man, stinking of his own urine, and yes we do judge.
What I also find, or we have is that we judge less when we understand, or take time to look at the why they are like this. Did they fall on hard times, did they loose their job?, there are a million reasons why people are like they are too.
It sometimes takes us to be " In their shoes so to speak, to know", or to take the time to not simply walk past turning our nose up, but to take the time, to speak to them too. For they have feelings, and still sense our looks of hate and disgust too.
