Three arrested, accused of illegally feeding homeless
Orlando police say they violated a city ordinance restricting the feedings.

By Susan Jacobson, Orlando Sentinel

1:33 PM EDT, June 2, 2011

Members of Orlando Food Not Bombs were arrested Wednesday when police said they violated a city ordinance by feeding the homeless in Lake Eola Park.

Jessica Cross, 24, Benjamin Markeson, 49, and Jonathan "Keith" McHenry, 54, were arrested at 6:10 p.m. on a charge of violating the ordinance restricting group feedings in public parks. McHenry is a co-founder of the international Food Not Bombs movement, which began in the early 1980s.

The group lost a court battle in April, clearing the way for the city to enforce the ordinance. It requires groups to obtain a permit and limits each group to two permits per year for each park within a 2-mile radius of City Hall.

Arrest papers state that Cross, Markeson and McHenry helped feed 40 people Wednesday night. The ordinance applies to feedings of more than 25 people.

"They intentionally violated the statute," said Lt. Barbara Jones, an Orlando police spokeswoman.

Police waited until everyone was served to make the arrests, said Douglas Coleman, speaking for Orlando Food Not Bombs.

"They basically carted them off to jail for feeding hungry people," said Coleman, who was not present. "For them to regulate a time and place for free speech and to share food, that is unacceptable."

Orlando Food Not Bombs has been feeding the homeless breakfast on Mondays for several years and dinner on Wednesdays for five years.

Police had not enforced the ordinance while the court battle continued. The U.S. District Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Atlanta ruled that city rules regulating how often large groups of people can be fed in a park do not violate the Constitution.

The penalty for violating Orlando's ordinance is 60 days in jail, a $500 fine or both.

Arrest documents state that Orlando Food Not Bombs received permits and fed more than 25 homeless people at Lake Eola Park on May 18 and 23. Coleman said the group rejected the permits.

On May 25, Orlando Food Not Bombs illegally fed a large group of homeless people, the police report states. The group on its website called for members to show up that day and defy the city ordinance, according to the report.

Officers said they found a press release on Markeson when they arrested him stating that group members planned to defy the ordinance Wednesday.

Bail was set at $250 for each person arrested. Cross and Markeson were released from jail early

Thursday. McHenry wants to stay in jail and let the legal process take its course, Coleman said.




People can invite their extended family to have lunch for free in the park but they need to have a permit to feed the homeless twice a year? Personally I think it's ridiculous what society has come to.

Thoughts?

Society as a whole is quite fucked up.
Its like the whole other half of people, those less fortunate, cease to exist. "I worked hard my life and am successful, they didn't therefore they should have to suffer" is the basic attitude. Nevermind that the ones saying this, are born into a loving family, and have a good start on life.

It doesn't matter if your liberal or conservative, anyone defending a law like this has no heart, and is a selfish sob.

Sometimes shit like this really disheartens me. I see so much suffering especially in Toronto of those less fortunate, and no one seems to care.
Yet a majority of these people are Christian & Catholic.
Figure that one out.

Ironically when I was homeless it was always the conservatives who gave me the 20 dollar bills and the liberals who shouted obscenities at me, called the cops, etc.

but I agree. Ive both been the homeless and have fed the homeless.

I was also raised to believe there was distinction between Catholics and Christians. I blame this on my mother who is Christian and VERY Anti-Catholic.

Ok, this is step one, basic taxonomy.

So it's anti-Catholics who talk about "Catholics and (other) christians"?
Seems like it would be the other way around, y'know?

it's not that...in my mom's eyes it's Christians and Catholics in that order.
In a Catholic whose very anti protestant it would be Catholics and all other Christians I reckon.

I'm not very enlightened in theology either, but I've always been told that a christian is a "follower" of christ, like if christ lived and was as described I think he was a bit of an anarchist hippie, pretty free from prejudice lol.

A catholic is a dude that believes in both testaments and they have all those "thou shall not...", and allegedly live by those principles. :shrug:

I think the liturgy and customs are cool too.

I always thought Catholicism(like Judaism) was this thing you had to be born into or go to school for as where the other forms of Christianity were more along the lines of "any Joe who wants to can read Romans, repent and let jesus into their heart"

Catholicism is a Satanic conspiracy.

I was reading on the web... like protestants are christians as well but they're not catholics of course.

In my country we don't have protestant church, I think that's more of Anglo-saxon origin.
I don't even know what are the baptists like you have in the USA.
We do have a lot of catholics unfortunately, but I know enough of them already.

Most of my not so distant relatives were protestant, methodist or baptist.
I do have many latin ancestors however.

I can buy that. Catholicism is the second shit-baggiest religion there is.


Priest: You did what?
Sinner: I fondled myself, groped three kids, raped a nun and stole a million dollars from the local charity.
Priest: Oh my. We can't have you fondling yourself. Say 3 Hail Mary's and make a donation to the church... and all will be forgiven.




Priest: You did what?
Sinner: I had sex with an alter boy.
Priest: Hey! Hands off him! He's mine!

yeah, like methodist??? :confused:

lol we're a latin country, so yes, church catholic is the majority, however we have mormons, jews, muslims,, hindus, buddists, satanists, wiccans, pagans...

My parents were rosicrucians, a well as my grandfather and most of my mothers family, I don't even know much about that.
I was raised by my uncles who consider themselves agnostics, and I believe I'm a mix of pagan with atheist.

Islam. But the difference between the two is so miniscule that for all intents, it's hard to rate one as being worse than the other. Ask me tomorrow or a week from now and I may put Catholicism 1st and Islam 2nd.

As a matter of fact, if you were to rate all religions on a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being the worst, none would rank higher than 9.95

Although I will say this, Catholic girls are the kinkiest girls... in my experience. So there is at least that much going for Catholics.

I think Rosicrucianism is really cool. I bought a few books on it, it's very metaphysical and esoteric. Much of it was way above my head. I started taking a correspondence course for it but eventually lost interest. They also have really badass architecture.


I was actually raised atheist, but am more or less agnostic now.

yeah, my grandpa was like pioneer rosicrucian in Portugal, and I know my father took it very seriously too.

I've also tried reading somethings to understand what they actually believed in but I usually quit at the beginning as it is indeed so much stuff.

Anyway I'm really more to the pagan side, all powerful Nature and all so :shrug:

Mayan Religion is really awful actually.. worse than Satanism/LaVeyan

"So, what are you in for?"  "I killed the man who slept with my wife.  You?"  "I fed some homeless guy in the park."

Damn I'm glad I don't live in Florida.  what a fucked up state.  What type of state makes a Law that prevents you from helping others?  People say cali should drop off into the Pacific, I think they have it backwards, I think it's Florida that needs to drop off into the Atlantic...

Awesome people probably have feet, they can walk out of florida while it sinks.  The plus is the old old people who can't make it out of that wretched smelly city called Orlando and Miami.

You can't feed the homeless in the park here because there are too many of them. It's like every homeless person in the country comes to florida to hang out and mooch off everyone downtown. Once you start feeding them in the park, you ruin the park for everyone.

It's not even like they're going hungry or anything. There are soup kitchens and missions everywhere with so much extra food that they end up throwing most of it away.

Derailing a thread about making feeding the starving illegal with a bunch of irrelevant blather about made-up nonsense so nobody actually discusses the real issue. That's saintly.

Yep, but people just don't understand that if they don't live here. Every time I pull out my wallet to buy a hotdog downtown I get swarmed by bums looking for a handout. It's fucking disgraceful. And like I said, it's not even like they're not eating. Every single restaurant and grocery store donates all of their out of date food to local soup kitchens. There's so much of it that most ends up getting thrown away.

They're not being cruel by banning people from feeding the homeless in the park, they're just trying to prevent public gathering areas from being ruined by a bunch of assholes who don't contribute anything to society.

And as much as I hate to say this, a public park is not an appropriate venue for such activity. Seeing as they'd made a tradition out of it, however, the city could have built a big new soup kitchen type place and then relocated it rather than disbanding it.

Of course, they could never do that because everyone is broke.

Homeless people swarm me all the time asking for stuff. Unfortunately I am poor as fuck.
The point is your attitude and the attitude of many is that they are less worthy than you.

And we can argue about it all day but at the end of it thats all it comes down to.

But sorry @OP for derailing.

I've lived in FL/ orlando area all my life. I've had homeless people think that they were working for someone tending to my yard and refusing to believe that it was our house. There are so many homeless people (especially on Lake Dot) here which is probably why the law is in place. Walk a couple blocks downtown and you'll get asked for money several times. It can definitely be a pain at times. But this still just seems completely unjust. So I can feed the ducks who can find their own food easily, but I can't feed someone who could be starving? They should've given a warning

You don't get it, the city doesn't need to build shit. They're are soup kitchens everywhere. I mean EVERYWHERE. No one is starving.

You all just don't understand how many homeless people come to florida just to post up with their hand out in a few of the major cities. There are times downtown where there are more bums around than anyone else.

Yes, because this is a common problem. There's always some asshole hippie college student that wants to stir up a bunch of shit by feeding the homeless in the park, or in front of the courthouse. Meanwhile, there were probably 2 or 3 soup kitchens within a 5 block radius. This has less to do with feeding hungry people, an more to do with some spoiled hipster fuck wanting to feel important.

You all just don't get it because you don't live here.

Now that I think about it more, I have to agree with you blewmeanie. There are tons of soup kitchens and places for them to get food. They could've just helped out there instead of feeding them in the park.

Yes, they seem to be just taking advantage of the law out of context to try to further their cause. I've been to several of those kitchens to help out when I was younger. There are enough that you never need to feed the homeless in a park.

If the homeless people actually were starving here and couldn't find the abundance of food available to them, thats simply natural selection.

Mehh, If people want to feed the homelss in a park then that should be
ok. Like someone said a couple pages back. You do not need a permit to get some
family's and friends together for a picnic. Shits ridiculous.


Yet another thing government should not be allowed to deal with. Although
I am not familiar with the law and this could be a state issue.

Around here you need a park permit if you are having more than a certain number of people (might be 50?) whether they are public or private.
Dunno about these guys, but it's probably similar.

Florida has a lot of weird laws. I can't wait to leave in a few months. If they were just feeding individuals it would have probably been fine. If I read the article correctly, the people could've had a permit but refused it and were basically protesting.

Maybe they did so because its stupid as shit :shrug:

Like Ive said before. Just because its a law does not make it right
and should not suggest that we all stand complacent on the matter.

Sure, some laws do need to be followed. I am no anarchist. But things
like this is a waste of tax dollars if the cops are out busting people
for such things.

It may be stupid but they knew what they were doing was illegal and didn't care. I don't personally agree with the law, but either way the people aren't starving. There probably is a reason it is illegal but I'm not going to speculate

You all don't have a clue as to what you're talking about. Without laws like this public spaces are completely uninhabitable in Florida. Just like they had to pass a law banning standing within so many feet of an atm, because so many bums would set up camp around them all day that no one could even use them.

Florida has a lot of weird laws. I can't wait to leave in a few months. If they were just feeding individuals it would have probably been fine. If I read the article correctly, the people could've had a permit but refused it and were basically protesting.






Maybe they did so because its stupid as shit :shrug:

Like Ive said before. Just because its a law does not make it right
and should not suggest that we all stand complacent on the matter.

Sure, some laws do need to be followed. I am no anarchist. But things
like this is a waste of tax dollars if the cops are out busting people
for such things.

My opinion.



You all don't have a clue as to what you're talking about. Without laws like this public spaces are completely uninhabitable in Florida. Just like they had to pass a law banning standing within so many feet of an atm, because so many bums would set up camp around them all day that no one could even use them.




For one, not many people are trying to feed the homeless in parks.
And two, the ATM thing is understandable.

That's not what the park is there for. I can't open up a store in the park, or build a house, because the park is there for everyone. When what you're doing prevents other people from being able to enjoy the park then it's a problem. The homeless dominate parks in Florida if you let them.

Often times, looking in bums general direction around here causes them to come to you and beg. If you gave one homeless person food in many of the parks here, others would come and it would certainly detract from your experience. You may say we sound harsh, but after long enough it gets kind of annoying. Especially when it is clear that they don't need what they beg for nearly as much as they say. I have nothing against them and have helped out many in the past

It's probably illegal because it's a capitalist country and you are required by law to give money to the government before you can start making money. Fuck this, I want a free-trade market system! Fuck income tax!

-edit-
forgot to mention, even though no profit is being made here, it's still a business in greedy eyes and needs to pay up. America is a mafia.

When I saw this thread I thought of signs saying don't feed the homeless under the don't feed the animal signs. It'd be interesting to see what picture would be on the sign...

There already are a few soup kitchens within walking distance of that park. They easily could have helped there. They also had the opportunity to receive a permit to do this without being arrested. They went about this the wrong way

the law is a law because Orlando's economy is based on tourism, and the city doesn't want any more homeless people in the downtown parks (which is what would happen if they got free meals there all the time).

Not saying it's just, but that's the reason.  I live a few hours from Orlando and the downtown area is always dead.

What kind of shitty circular logic is that?

Tyrannical enforcement doesn't justify tyrannical legislation.

This demonstrates just how ridiculous some people are.

You're a tyrant, and Pris you might as well be going to the park and pointing YOUR gun at people and kidnapping them yourself if you support these kinds of behaviors with your voice and your money.

OK Pris, POV ammended.

I still don't agree with a law on location though.  Its absurd. 

What they don't want reality coming into their idealistic rich mans pardigm - so we make a law on it :lol:





rich... orlando... hahahaha...

last time I was there, this is what it looked like






Orlando is full of extremes. It also has quite a few neighborhoods that look like this.

Now that I think about it more, I have to agree with you blewmeanie. There are tons of soup kitchens and places for them to get food. They could've just helped out there instead of feeding them in the park.




Y'all are missing the point.

Part of Food Not Bombs is all about sharing food in a society that has more than enough food for everybody.

But another part of it is making poverty visible. All those soup kitchens and churches a put out of sight where nobody has too look at all those "bums". But sharing food in public with poor people makes it VISIBLE. And it pisses off all the yuppies and rich fuckers who don't like to be asked for money when they walk down the street, and have smelly poor people being poor in their nice fancy rich people parks.

Most cities' policies surround homelessness aims not at putting people in houses, but making the homeless, and poverty in general INVISIBLE.

Well let me break it to you guys. We live in a fundamentally unjust society that has enough wealth to feed and house everybody, yet forces people to sleep on the street and arrests people for sharing food.

Wealth and poverty and not two separate things which are just unfortunate when juxtaposed. WEALTH CREATES POVERTY, AND POVERTY CREATES WEALTH. and as long as you have developers building high rise condos you're gonna need homeless day-laborers to actually do the real work.

Not to mention that the majority of homeless people are veterans!
