how broken does your moral compass need to be to try and outlaw feeding people

And then they go on about Jesus and such.
Unironically and without seeing the inconsistency
That’s because Jesus only fed 4000-5000 people twice, so not the same thing. /s
Thanks for the chuckle :)
He should have told them to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. No wonder the authorities got him.
The ordinance was signed into law by a democrat mayor.
Not that I think Democrats aren’t conservatives.
And that’s why I say there’s often little difference between the two.
Yep, neoliberals are conservatives. We don’t have a progressive party.
That’s capitalism at work. People are forced to work. If they don’t, they will starve. Providing a way for people to opt out of that system would destroy the power of capitalism and cannot be allowed.
Houston’s law, which was passed in 2012, states that any group that wishes to feed five or more people must get special permission from a property owner to do so, even if the feeding event takes place on public property. The law went virtually unenforced until March 2023, when the first ticket to a FNB volunteer was issued.
I have some history with the Orlando Florida Food Not Bombs. A decade or so ago Orlando tried an anti-homeless-feeding law which had similar goals. That goal is to stop secular folks from feeding the homeless - the local churches in Orlando were upset that there was food being given out that didn’t also force feed Jesus. And the scary leftist politics make FNB an easy target for neoliberals. One of the guys I knew in Orlando pointed out how on veterans day they were literally the only ones out feeding the homeless veterans. Orlando’s law led to at least one arrest, but iirc the courts found the law to be unconstitutional.
If you don’t feed the homeless they will just go away eventually. Problem solved. - Republicans
Yeah… No… The homeless are humans. - The Judge
