"...cited a 90-year-old man for feeding the homeless in a public park,..."

They crucified Jesus on a cross for the same thing thousands of years ago.

They did?

You must be reading one of the new ‘bibles’.

"This coming from someone who’s only been here since ‘11?"

That's right, sweetheart. Three years on you gives me the right to bust your chops.

We support a men and women homeless shelter in the inner city. The directors visit our church to present success stories and needs. They have brought individuals up who had been previously homeless.

God never said that people would applaud what we do. It’s out of a desire to help those in need.

I can understand Freepers who are frustrated about the homeless setting up boxes in parks, and living in areas families with to visit, but the immediate need is to feed and clothe ppl, and you mentioned. Thank you for serving those who are in dire straits.

My brother lives in central Florida. He wants to ride his bicycle to work but,he tells me,that the homeless hang along the road and hassle folks for money and he doesn't want to deal with that crowd and crap especially in the morning.

I started lurking in 04 and posting in 06, I don’t know who you used to be.

Why were you banned?

My all means, bust away. You’re still in diapers in Free Republic world compared to my time here which is why you didn’t recognize the previous handle, but others here do. If you had been here long enough you would’ve known.

Now do yourself a favor and ask your mother to change that poopy diaper. You’re dirty, fussy, and in need of a nap.

The Mayor fits the description once attributed to the area when, in the Year 2000, it was said that residents in Florida were having difficulty in putting on a Christmas pageant. The reason??? They couldn’t find 3 wise men.

You lie.

The immediate need to create a bit of controversial news, then accuse others of not caring.

If this 90 year old troll cared about the homeless, and really just wanted them fed, he would have found a suitable place.

Whatever your name, Mortimer, it's nice of you to offer yourself up as a troll we can play with here.

So who were you?

You were asked that question by others when you made your dramatic vanity post announcing your arrival here. You didn't respond then. Can you now?

We went on a trip to Hawaii recently. There’s a beautiful white sand beach on the leeward side of the island of Oahu. It is now covered with homeless people. It was frustrating to see.

Regardless of this fact, if people are hungry and you wish to feed them, I don’t believe it is wrong to do so.

How do you expect them to recognize it when you refuse to spit it out?

Kinda like the DOJ going after the Little Sisters of the Poor. You win ...you beat up some nuns so you lose. You lose...you lose.

...

This new ordinance bans feeding the homeless outdoors in public spaces, in this case a park. It is not illegal to feed the homeless.

Actually, I did respond. You must not have read the thread. In it, I pointed out that there was a probation period for new members. All posts submitted by new members had to be reviewed before publishing.

So you’re avoiding answering the question. Typical troll behavior

Does Mortimer have a time machine or something ?
