"But Daytona Beach Police Chief Mike Chitwood said the Jimenezes had been warned one week earlier to stop their weekly feeding sessions after local residents complained that some homeless people gathering in the park were defecating and urinating on the grounds, and that some were showing up drunk at dawn.
"We as a city have spent millions of dollars to turn that park into a place for families, kids and dog lovers," Chitwood said. "We have an ordinance that says when people want to perform acts of kindness or charity that they must coordinate with our local social service agencies.
"They were told (the previous Wednesday) that if they come back there, they would be cited and they could risk going to jail," Chitwood said. "There is a segment of the homeless population that is homeless by choice. I don't want to impugn them all. But some are homeless because they are sex offenders, substance abusers and bank robbers. That's why we ask (Good Samaritans) to coordinate with our social service agencies, because they know who needs to be served."
Pure click-bait.

Move the Wednesday meal for the homeless to the front steps of City Hall. It's a public building with guaranteed right of access for all.

And therein lies the problem, if you block access you run a fowl of the law.

I rarely give out to individuals.
I prefer give to local organised charities where they can help in more ways than just one-time food.
And I agree this was insane.
I'd rather be phishing!

No, Dave, please; PTOMAINE is never the answer.

Aye, and I have the added benefit of living in some kind of an archaeologically obsessed theme park, despite no-one managing any great digs since the 70s or 50s even. Better are the internecine wars between the local post-processualists and the local new archaeology rivals. At least they new archaeologist don't punch horses when the sondage fails to turn anything up I suppose.

Oddly enough, I played the sport in high school. It's a wonderful sport, but I also get tired of the mindless drivel that most people who never played it go on and on about.
