This is almost uniquely an American thing lol. We instead just have a housing crisis (actually a result of a housing crash over 10 years ago caused by careless businesses)
Some cities have ordinances about giving stuff to the homeless or “panhandlers”. A women in my state is suing the police for being arrested for handing out food to the homeless. How it is a crime to help the homeless is fucking wild to me
From what I just read apparently serving more than 5 homeless people requires fucking registration with the city or else face charges for misdemeanor and/or 2k fine. What a bunch of clowns
What’s stopping someone from advertising help for homeless people right next to a children’s park? Now you’ve got a large gathering of homeless people, many who are on drugs, criminals, or on the sex offender registry. Now they are all gathered in one place and don’t want to leave.
It’s to deter panhandling that has gotten out of control. Dallas actually has some amazing homeless outreach programs and police here are trained to provide those sources. I don’t agree they can’t ask for food and most Dallas PD don’t enforce this law.
because people are worried it will encourage homeless to congregate. If it was really health concerns like people claim restaurants and grocers wouldnt be required to throw out their leftovers
"We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force."
Cops are fucking cowards. They aren’t going to fuck with enforcing stupid laws like this when there is actual resistance. They like fucking with homeless people and the people who feed them in the places it’s not legal because it gives them a power trip. Armed resistance doesn’t give them an easy power trip fix.
"Tyrannical laws out there" ... in Dallas TX !!! No shit bro. You live in a RED state where YOUR lawmakers don't give a damn about the poor. Loby to change the laws. Stop voting against your own interests. Brandishing your guns is real cute though, but effective in this case. Been doing this "charity work for seven years" and yet keep re-electing Republicans who don't give a damn.
Not illegal to allow the homeless into your home instead of doing this in a public place that’s safer without a bunch of homeless people hanging around.

By the sword
Make charity ungovernable
Literally the opposite of violence. Helping the needy. Should not be a crime.
>make it illegal to feed the homeless
I can’t find “news share” anywhere. And the only “Feed the Need” charitable event in Dallas has a website that doesn’t mention guns or cops.
If you feed the wildlife they’ll never learn to fend for themselves right? /s
Without government, how would we have homelessness?

Its a crime to help homeless people in Dallas? Am I reading that right?
Some cities have ordinances about giving stuff to the homeless or “panhandlers”. A women in my state is suing the police for being arrested for handing out food to the homeless. How it is a crime to help the homeless is fucking wild to me
From what I just read apparently serving more than 5 homeless people requires fucking registration with the city or else face charges for misdemeanor and/or 2k fine. What a bunch of clowns
I was about to ask that as well, how is that a crime? Lmao

Impossible to help homeless without the state, what a fantasy
I just wanna know why it’s a crime to give homeless people food???
Typically in the US it’s justified by politicians peddling the lie that the food could be tainted, so they’re better off with no food.
Because the people collecting donations and tax money will be found out for the frauds they are.
because people are worried it will encourage homeless to congregate. If it was really health concerns like people claim restaurants and grocers wouldnt be required to throw out their leftovers
Because it attracts them all to one place and turns that one place into a dangerous area. Drugs, litter, fighting, etc…
The city is worried that there’s sanitation issues and don’t want citizens sueing the city.
Never assume the government is looking out for our best interests, they will murder you to preserve their status-quo.

When charity becomes criminal, rebellion becomes duty.
Open carrying swords is pretty awesome, we should bring that back. Keep the guns but add swords to the equation.
Why not both?
Armed to deter cops? Hmm... in my experience that's not a great way to deter them.
I dunno they seemed pretty deterred in Uvalde
even worked against the feds at Bundy Ranch
In Texas it is. You know if there is one gun you can see, there are MANY more around
A single armed person doesn't deter cops. 50 or 100 people armed and armored better than the cops will absolutely deter their shenanigans.
Worked for the black panthers, you know until reagan banned open carry in cali

What happens when cops do not have the monopoly on force? Liberty.
I can’t find “news share” anywhere. And the only “Feed the Need” charitable event in Dallas has a website that doesn’t mention guns or cops.
You have experience deterring cops?
I’ve got such a liberty boner rn
Holy fuck thats based
Why is helping the homeless illegal in Dallas?
Don’t comply. Love that - low key my life philosophy.
High key me
Edit: didn’t means for this to be a copy pasta. Just wanted a few of the top comments to see this.
It's News 2 Share. The 2 is hard to see.
That's awesome!
Wtf? Helping the needy in Dallas is a crime? That’s complete bullshit

Dallas is a blue city run by Democrats.
I can feed homeless people in us ? Wtf bro.
This is absolutely awesome.
What's the problem?
FUCKING BASED
“The group was armed to deter cops”
How is it a crime to feed homeless people. Like fine charge me. I dare you to find a jury that would convict me for it.
Dallas, one of the blue marbles in the sea of red.
Not illegal to allow the homeless into your home instead of doing this in a public place that’s safer without a bunch of homeless people hanging around.
Sounds like you talking about wild animals instead of hungry humans with no homes
As a European, the logic is beautifully absurd;
The fuck?

Damn, I should start open carrying my swords.
And my sword…
Fucking badass
I would love to see this in my area. I love it when good people are like "we're gonna do good people shit and you ain't gonna stop us" lol
FUCK YEAH!!
Who would win?
Good thinking. Kill them with some old school food poisoning
They can't starve if the water has lead in it first - Flint Michigan government solvin problems
I'd roll up on that with a canister of sleeping gas and steal all the weapons and food.
That will do the opposite of deter cops
