Jesus christ why are Food Laws so fucking dumb?
>Long story short, a while ago I was in a bad spot. Lonely, no friends at all, hated life and felt I had nothing to live for. Had self esteem issues as well and felt like a fat fuck.
>Just about the only thing I took pride in was food and my cooking.
>One afternoon I made too much food, and due to having self esteem issues I couldn't bring myself to eat it all, and I couldn't save it for later because there was no space in the fridge and it wouldn't really keep until the following day.
>Ended up deciding to put the leftovers in an empty ice cream tub and give it to one of the homeless people I saw earlier that day on the way back from uni.
>Being the awkward autist I'm pretty sure I walked up, dropped the box at his feet and ran away without saying a word.
>Saw him a few days later. For the first time in a long time there was someone who was actually happy to see me.
>Who talked to me.
>And I actually felt happy for a change.
>A few days later when I was grocery shopping I bought a little extra and then the next day I take the time to cook that little bit more and box it up.
>Go out and walk across town, giving the homeless on the streets a nice warm meal.
>Was back in mid february so it was still somewhat cold, and they were all really thankful for something to warm them up.
>Over time get somewhat friendly with a few of the homeless people. Really were generally nice people, who often just fell on hard times.
>I had a reason to get up in the morning.
>I had people to talk to.
>I was happy.

>Unfortunately, as some of you may have realised, what I was doing was illegal. I was operating without being held to any standards, which is a no no, even for non profit organisations or charities.
>Get pulled up by a Police Officer earlier today and arrested.
>Fined and warned.
>If I'm caught again, I will be prosecuted and likely face jail time.

Fucking kill me.
Any suggestions?

idk, kill yourself? lol

what I've seen people give homeless people food. Didn't know you could be arrested for it.
>>
I don't think there is any law preventing you from sharing food with people you make in your house
if that was the case it would be against the law to have a potluck
>>
Pretty much all types of laws are equally dumb and poorly designed
Ron Paul was right the whole time

>keeping the homeless alive

No anon, you're supposed to wait until the winter for the frost to kill them off.
>>
>>7593182
Fight it OP. You were giving a legal gift to your "friends" those aren't held to food standards. You think church potlucks are held to those standards. where you live OP?
>>
>>7593182
Florida?
Yeah, this is an example of an immoral law. It's up there with the ones against feeding someone else's parking meter. Seek advice from these people:

fight it and fuck the hottest one that you feed

dont give him a chance to resist

You can't get arrested for giving food to friends. The police officer is a fucking jackass but you are stupid as well if you can't figure out how to not get arrested while giving away some food to a few people you now know.
>>
I didn't come to ck for a feels thread. God dammit :(

Yes, there actually are some cities that have laws against giving a sandwich to a homeless person. It is real. And it's really nasty. It always involves crooked politicians and real estate.

>It always involves crooked politicians and real estate.

.. or people that just want to keep the bums from shitting on the sidewalks.

You're not allowed to feed the rats and pigeons in most cities, too, because the vermin get comfortable and continue to destroy other people's property. (A concept modern socialists know nothing about, of course.)

If I was the police I would have shot you like a dog in the street.

Run to your local news/newspaper and cry that you were persecuted for trying to help the homeless. Kick up a nice little shitstorm.

In any case, call up your local charities/homeless shelters and ask about making food donations to them. They'll help you through the legalities of it.

Reminder that the Clinton administration passed Good Samaritan laws that protect people or organizations that make food donations in good faith. You're not going to get sued because somebody got a tummy ache from eating the Chinese food you donated at the end of the day.
