Feeding alone or giving out clothing or camping equipment doesnt address the core issues of being homeless. Many of the homeless are mentally ill, and homeless by choice. They'd rather live under a bridge than be confined to an institution where they would receive care.

Can we even slip them a protein bar, calling it “candy”?
I guess not, if it doesn’t have Queen Michelle’s stamp of approval displayed prominently on the wrapper.
This country is now certifiable, a few bricks short of a load, a few bubbles off plumb, nuts, and disnintegrating faster than those new-fangled packing peanuts.
Time to take to my bed and cry.

Youre never going to get anywhere arresting, priests, pastors and imams in the street. Umm. We routinely hear immans recruiting in prisons looking for violent followers useful for intimidating the masses. But, show me one report of an imman circulating among the homeless to provide them comfort. Give me a break.

remember that the goal of UN Agenda 21 for the population of the US is only 500,000 people.
the govt stooges have 299 million people to eliminate.

There was a time when cities and towns had vagrancy laws.

The Despot of NYC Mike Bloomberg started this and I said just watch: This is going to spread, and it did. Whatever the midget fascist does the rest of the libs follow.

Guilty as charged. Please come and get me you Federal Fascists! “But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. Matthew 6:3-4.” Everything moral is now illegal, and everything immoral is legal. Francis Schaeffer: when there are no absolutes to govern society, society becomes the absolutes.” I never thought I would live to see this. Stand up America; your leaders are leading you into bankruptcy, third world status, slavery, and perdition.

Be careful of what is in your heart, and don’t ever assume misfortune cannot befall you.
I make my own decisions on who I help and who I don’t. I don’t need self-appointed nannies to tell me that.

I'm against government over-regulation of everything on principle, but let me give you guys another perspective:
Being a Californian, I live close to Ground Zero of the infectious communist wasteland that is San Francisco. San Francisco, while always elitist, as left-wingers always are, is, at the same time, intellectually incapable of justifying ANY restrictions on homeless, despite the fact that they actually do implement some (hello cognitive dissonance!). Homeless are like saints to left-wingers, the ultimate end-game of all left-wing policies: people who pose no threat to the elite but are completely dependent on them and actually serve to make the elite feel MORE elite.
Policies that I can recall San Francisco implementing and then repealing due to their foreseeable (to any sane person) results: no prosecution of vagrancy laws, no restriction on homeless "encampments", and best of all, a program that actually PAID homeless something like $20 per week, dispensed from a public service window (I'm not making that up).
Well, the San Franciscans were shocked (shocked!) when their homeless problem grew instead of shrank. The pay-out program only lasted a couple of months, as I recall. Nowadays, I bet the seriously gentrified San Francisco cracks down on homeless in the "good" neighborhoods, but since I avoid that place like the Lucifer's Toilet that it is, we'll have to hear from an SF Freeper to know for sure.
Here is the problem for the rest of California (and the US): those San Francisco people, having soiled their own nest, move and take their asinine, LSD-induced, communist ideals with them and, as they have done in my town, they gather in large enough numbers in a new place to take over the local governments, and then they treat homeless as saints again! My town, which used to have a great downtown atmosphere, now literally has homeless camping 24x7 on the city plaza, and even the city courthouse lawn. Businesses get no sympathy when they ask that cops remove urinating, abusive homeless from their doorsteps, and, as a result, downtown now appeals mostly to the young, drunk, and the left-wing self-styled "elites" who revel in the result of their benevolence. But have no doubt, when the problem gets bad enough, they'll move to an unsoiled place because "this town just isn't the same".
I bet San Francisco has less of a homeless problem than my town now, and I wouldn't be surprised to see the laws listed in the article applied there, because that's what left-wingers do - they create a problem with their low-IQ, left-wing fantasyland BS, then "solve" it with draconian government control.

Well, that's one project pushed by political regulators in efforts to sweep some of the evidence of their evil deeds into crematories. While those state and local socialists claim to be conservative in politics, let's have a look at their other activities.

Very evil state of affairs our country has turned to. This is America's judgement.
A minimum requirement to be human is to feed the hungry. Not by government fiat, but by humanity and G*d's laws. We have become so lost and evil.

It is now illegal in 33 cities to feed homeless people
______________________________________________________
The next illegal act will be to offend them by asking them if they wanted to do a little work for you to EARN their food.
Naw! That would be discriminatory since the welfare cheats don’t have to work but they would.
Ah, forget it and remember “no one is responsible for their own acts....everyone else is.”
