normiss 906 #1 October 8, 2007 In Orlando anyway...this will be interesting. We have a group here that wants the homeless out of town...we also have ordinances against "horizontal" positioning in parks, panhandling only in authorized blue painted "boxes" downtown, and they're considering an ordinance outlawing panhandling between 7 pm and 7 am (I may be off on the hours). But the trial apparently starts soon... Food Not Bombs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

normiss 906 #7 October 9, 2007 funny thing in this case....I'm betting they're found guilty and summarily sentenced to community service....feeding the homeless at the homeless shelter. That'll teach them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
