  • My dad tells me of during the Depression when his mom would leave food on the back step for the hobos. This was an act of kindness in hard times. What this woman is doing is no different. These are indeed hard times we are living in, and we should be commending people who do this, not penalizing them.

      Nice thought, ain't gonna happen.

      I hate to use the stray dog/cat analogy but, if you feed them, they will stay.

    • @mytwocents Ain't nobody's problem but hers if the poor keep coming to her for food. She doesn't see it as a problem, so it is not a problem for anybody.
      Bob Marley used to hand out money to his neighbours in Kingston all the time. He knew their situation, because he was one of them. An act of kindness is an act of kindness. Nothing wrong with that.

    • @wellybub
      The 'problem' is not with her, but her neighbors.
      They worry thier property values will fall with the less fortunate hanging around.

      They are likely right.

  • good for you lady,..The local Government just wants permit money and license cash,.
    maybe they can make themselves feel happy and just charge you a simple permit fee,and leave you alone,.
    but that would be to easy,shame on your city Government,your driveway is no different then a church basement,most likely she has a neighbor complaining,.,

  • I stand behind this woman 100%! The world will become a better place when we start to help each other and live as a single unit of being. Telling this woman that it is against the law to help, is taking our potential and taking it two steps backward. Fucking pathetic and disturbing. I hope this woman wins whatever counter-productive legal action is taken against her.

      Truth, truth, truth. Well said man. Seriously, I want to find out her address, because I'd really like to send her some money to help her out. What she is doing is amazing. And not a whole lot of people can say they would do what she's doing. She should be helped out, not shut down.

  • Proof once and for all. It is illegal in America to feed the homeless and destitute. This country has lost it's soul. I think this place needs Anonymous' attention.

      I am sure that the individuals listed in landsolos comment above could be "contacted" by Anonymous, just to keep them "informed"

  • Pretty sad state of affairs when helping out your fellow citizens in need becomes illegal.
    Won't be long before having a caring attitude and actually giving a fuck about those around you is made illegal too.

      Even sadder state of affairs when your pathetic neighbor decides to turn her front yard into Skid Row.

    • @EntitlementCentralNYC

      I took from the video that she was offering food to those who were on restricted budgets, her references to mothers with kids etc, implied, well for me anyway, that she was not putting out food in bowl to attract a variety of miscreants and recalcitrant crackheads.Believe it or not there are areas all over this worl where people do work and live an honest life but still struggle to make ends meet. the lady was only showing a bit of human conpassion and got in trouble for More..

  • To most governments it doesn't matter if people eat or starve, just as long as the government is in control. Keep up the good fight there lady!

  • More and more of our freedoms are infringed upon each day. It's a sad era for this country that is very upsetting. Check out the videos of cops shutting down kids lemonade stands.

  • Seriously, where do I donate money to help this lady? Fuck the stupid city. Let her do it. She's helping people out. I think what is doing is noble and amazing. The city should be HELPING her, not FIGHTING her. fucking bullshit!
