A man has been found not guilty of breaking a law against feeding homeless people outside a public library in Houston, Texas.
The whole idea of it being criminal is absurd. If I was to give someone a gift, what the fuck does it matter where they do or do not live? What are Republicans going to do, ban Christmas now or something too? lol, is this is the real war on Christmas they’re always complaining about? :P
I could maybe see some versions of this that make sense. In my home city, for example, it’s illegal to panhandle from cars along the curbside, and there’s practical reasons for that. There were intersections that used to have homeless people claiming “turf” on busy corners where cars had to stop at red lights and it was dangerous for everyone involved.
This being Texas, though, I’m sure practical reasons are only there as an excuse for the cruelty.
