Forbidden: Shelters must turn away synagogue goodies like gefilte fish and pastries, thanks to Bloomberg.
Its not just that the donations offer an enjoyable addition to the official low-salt fare; knowing that the food comes from volunteers and community members warms their hearts, not just their stomachs.
Can anyone explain to me how Bloomberg was able to run as a Republican!

If you are starving, do you have a problem with the nutritional grade of the food? It is better than eating sawdust.

Hmmm. Houston, NYC, and other crack down on donating food to the homeless all at the same time.
Houston’s also ramping up prosecution of food trucks and noisy dance nights at clubs.
Priorities when Democrats are in charge.

The homeless will just go back to dumpster diving in trash bins outside fast food joints.

Will Bloomberg require them to post nutritional information and calorie content on the dumpsters too?

This has nothing to do with nutrition. It’s about creating a supply chain for a crony or a union.

I always thought any food was better than none when you're hungry.
Add one more the the list of bad things liberals do "because it's good for you".

“Can anyone explain to me how Bloomberg was able to run as a Republican!”
Rhetorical I know, but same reason McPain, and now Romney. The GOP-E.
Logic says if the Radical Left can take over the DemocRAT Party, then why not the leadership of the other major party as well.
I think that’s what we are experiencing.

So, NO FOOD is better to a homeless person (and their families) than FREE FOOD from a church, synagogue, mosque or temple?................Bloomberg must have his hands on the food distro lines somewhere and must be making big bucks.............

In prohibiting freewill donations Bloomberg is tossing the entire cost burden to the taxpayers.
Taxes are collected at the point of a gun. If you don't believe that then don't pay. They will send armed officers of the law to pick you up.
I think this action gives perverts like Bloomberg some sort of sexual thrill.

“But a certain Samaritan being on his journey, came near him; and seeing him, was moved with compassion.
And going up to him, bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. “
City officials arrested the Samaritan and charged him with practicing medicine without a license; improper handling of medical waste; illegal dispensing of beer, wine, or spirits; animal cruelty; illegal operation of an emergency vehicle or ambulance; leaving the scene of a an accident; failure to notify law enforcement of a crime; operation of an unlicensed medical facility.

Just sign up. Best I can tell, Republican politicians are just fine with big government.

Can anyone explain to me how Bloomberg was able to run as a Republican! Because he knew he couldn't buy his way through the Dem primary and there was no one on the R side to fill Rudy's shoes, so he just bought the R nomination and then the election. He was never a Republican.
