Volunteers with Love Thy Neighbor were given notices to appear for sharing food with homeless people under Fort Lauderdale’s new “sharing ban” regulations. They were forced to shut down the sharing and relocate to private property. Unfortunately the people most in need of food aid are in this area where the sharing ban enforcement is being focused.
A new Ft Lauderdale Florida prohibits “meal-sharing” with the public. The man, Arnold Abbott faces 60 days in jail for violation of the law. Police apprehended him while he was handing out food to homeless people in a park on Sunday. Mr Abbott said: “One of police officers came over and said ‘Drop that plate right now,’ as if I was carrying a weapon.” Watch the craziness below.
Sound off in the comments and let us know what you think. Should the police allow this table to continue?
