Have you ever seen a homeless person on the street? I am sure your heart goes out to them and you wonder what their personal story is that resulted in their current situation.
In Ft Lauderdale two ministers and a 90-year-old man face up to 60 days in jail for feeding the homeless. Arnold Abbott was one of the first to be arrested under the new law when he tried to feed hundreds of homeless people outside his church.
"One of the police officers came over and said 'Drop that plate right now,' as if I was carrying a weapon," Abbott said.
A crime to feed the homeless? What's next? Unlawful to help the elderly? Illegal to visit the sick? A crime to give charity?
Ft Lauderdale sounds like a great place, anyone else want to move?
