A Daytona Beach couple that runs a Christian Ministry which feeds hundreds of hungry people every weekend in a local park has been fined $746 by the city for breaking ordinances which outlaw feeding people in public.
I know I've discussed this before (Columbia, SC and Fort Lauderdale, FL), but what does this say about the soul of our nation when we criminalize being poor and/or helping the poor?
I don't know what leaders who devise such laws are thinking, but it isn't about promoting the general welfare or securing the blessing of liberty.
And it most certainly does not speak to the better angels of our nature.
Peace,
