There was one assassination that, done 'properly', required you to break from a monk patrol just long enough to stab your target without getting shoved by these griefers. If anyone managed that without flipping out and killing everyone in the vicinity I would be surprised... Compared to that, the bards make lovely company. And you can always take their money.

You can grab and throw them. There's even an achievement in AC1. http://www.achieve360points.com/game/assassinscreed/ 27. Enemy of the Poor Grab and Throw 25 Harassers. Admittedly, I'm only 3 cities in, so perhaps later on beggars form a posse Speaking as a low-budget gamer who just picked up AC1, you don’t have to kill the beggars. You can grab and throw them.
