Group feeding the homeless hit with 29 citations 

Local governments would rather hide the problem than truly address it

I get what the police are trying to do but don't we have real criminals we can catch?? This is just a tax on kind-hearted people and a bad look for HPD.

Those without a heart should not be in positions of power. The government is filled with psychopaths.

I would request trial by jury and dare the prosecutor to take it to trial.

This is the whole bunch of nonsense. They are going to waste their time on someone trying to feed the Homeless. Seriously!!!!

This is when you know something is wrong with our government.

Imagine being one of those overfed, bald🐖's handing out tickets to good samaritans feeding the homeless. 1:09 What a job they're doing

It looks like they are on the sidewalk. I don't think a public sidewalk is Houston Public (repeat public) Library property. In fact the library property is fenced & gated and it is closed and locked when the library is closed. So this group is not on library property.

Poverty, hunger and homelessness shouldn’t be a crime.

In my city I live in we have $100 million new library. Homeless people are in there all day doing drugs and threatening people. I won’t go back there again with my son.😢. I do appreciate this woman helping the homeless and not caring about tickets 🎫

Proof we are in a "police state."

Why don't people protest ? •feeding the homeless is something good and helpful than other crazier laws that are made ▪︎So it's illegal to be good ?

Great update on the story over 90 tickets have been filed. The group has requested jury trials for every ticket, and the city can either not find unbiased jurors willing to convict or the juries they have sat have quitted, the city has lost every single case.

Feeding the homeless reduce crime. People are generally more happy after a meal, and that leads to less violence. And they no longer have to steal to get money for food. Not all use drugs, but those that do will continue to steal. But those that don't do drugs, they will no longer have to steal.

Wish government would explain their logic to the public then work with charities. Believe their goal is to have homeless in specific locations where they can monitor them, homeless will migrate to where there are resources like food (bait), then they can be documented, given assistance, checked for warrants. If feeding stations spread out to other areas, homeless will follow the food and city loses control.

How much you wanna bet that the judge reduces the fines to community service

when there are criminal organizations: chill when they feed the homeless: its the end of the world apparently and we all gon perish waaaaa

I have a friend who washes windows for a living he went up to a mountain town near where he lives to give an estimate in the conversation he happened to ask the home owner what he did for a living to afford such a beautiful home and he said he runs a homeless kitchen😱 can you believe that maybe that's why they're giving out tickets because she's taken away from their business 💁‍♀️

You need the property owners permission. That's oddly specific and makes no mention of public property. And a library is public. They regulate feeding the homeless but you have the freedom to walk around with guns unregulated. Make that make sense? Murica

😂 don’t feed the hungry in 🇺🇸

Shows the cruelty that's so prevalent in government these days. Let's abuse those with a heart helping people who are homeless.

City wants money for feeding the homeless basically

I'd like to see the stats that backup their statement that accuses homeless people of being violet criminals. My bet is this is money related.

I see nothing wrong with feeding the homeless. Have a heart, city leaders...

And people say humanity is dying.. I wonder why

It's Tx, Just open carry your guns: they'll leave you alone

So you can't even food the hungry in this country.

Write or rescission. You have three days.

4 nights a week feeding people thats hungry god bless her heart make a gofundme we gon pay for dem tickets 4 you

I think that the people who complained about not feeling comfortable just don’t like having homeless people around maybe they should put themselves in their place to see what it’s like to be homeless ‼️ Anyone of us could possibly be homeless one day including me I live on Disability and my Retirement that I had to take out way before I was suppose to my rent is almost all of my disability money $200.00 is all I have left from that and that’s the reason I took my retirement money early if I wouldn’t have I would get a lot more money from retirement. That’s all the money I have if something would happen to my daughter ( god forbid ) I probably would be homeless I’m just below the poverty level I also have a link card and Medicaid Medicare. The thought of something happening is always on my mind and to be honest it scare’s me ‼️ My landlord raised my rent and didn’t tell me until a few day’s before the end of May ANYONE CAN BECOME HOMELESS INCLUDING THE PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN AND SAY THAT THEY AREN’T COMFORTABLE WITH THE HOMELESS BEING THERE ‼️ They could volunteer to help feed the homeless and maybe then they would realize that homeless people are people who had something terrible happen in their live’s there are some people who fake being homeless and those people should be ashamed of themselves because it makes some people wonder if they really are homeless and that hurts the real homeless population. 😔

If people have to get a permit just to help feed the homeless they won't have much money for themselves to care for those people but the government would be so happy for what they're getting though It's helping them instead of the people in need

Move your operation before you are charged with accessory to an possible event involving the Library. The City isn't telling you to stop They are telling you to set up away from the Library Get permission to set up in a better spot with less threat to the public.

LMAO our taxing dollars at work

Why can’t they just move? It’s a few minutes away?

Yet Capitol Murder suspects get granted, baked a cake and an escort home. The Justice system is truly flawed.

Get out of office or the people will rise

if one wants to help the bums, then they can clear out stuff in their own homes and let them move in, and keep them under control so at not to bother the neighbors . good luck with that...

So He (Jesus) said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God. Luke 16:15.

Anger i feel anger f off am feedong the homeless even if its illegal

DO NOT PAY ANY FINES! ONSTEAD, FILE CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST THEM THEY HAVE CONSPIRACRD AGAINST RIGHTS! USC 241 AND 242, THAKE THEIR CHARTER WITH A RIT MANDAMUS OF QWARENTO JAIL ANY GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES WHO HAVE DONE THIS!!! ABSOLUTELY SHAMEFUL AND DISGUSTING!!!

Set up elsewhere

Lets pay there tickets!

Feed illegal immigrants, probably get an award.

So, Ya'll Judge Hidalgo/ Mayor Turner supporters agree with situation, what Hiprocrits

Smh just sad they just don’t want the homeless over there gone make up a lie smh help This world lord

I agree with the mayor. Can't go into the library without risking getting into a fight with a mentally ill homeless person. It kinda poses a threat to parents bring their kids. There, of course I know people watching this interview isn't thinking about the safety of the non homeless people that visit there.

There's an ordinance, so get permission, without permission they should cite and jail them. Its very simple.

Why are they trying to present her as a victim? The city told her where she could do it and not be fined but she chooses that she's going to be indignant and do it where she wants to and how she wants to and then wants to act like somebody's doing something to her. People who live in the area know how it gets violent when you get large groups of people like that to come around. It's just facts.

God bless the volunteers, shame on the law. Also God bless Israel in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, amen

Get him voted out

These "Christians" are sure following Christs' teachings

How is that illegal feeding homeless in front of library? DID GOVERNMENT GET PERMISSION FROM PROPERTY OWNERS TO FEED, HOUSE ILLEGALS?

Force the homeless to get a job and stop giving them handouts that enable them to be lazy.

Perfect!! Dont feed them

If the people serving the food were black nothing would happen.

I brought a Pizza after a show at House of Blues, It was nasty so I tried to give it to the homeless .... should I be fined for that also? BS

What l don't understand why is it alright for illegal immigrants are selling food she doesn't get fined.

Tell them to bring them to their house and have them there for dinner lunch breakfast that’s all

It makes me SICK how Republicans continue to cloak themselves in the teachings of Jesus, but they do the TOTAL OPPOSITE... their hypocrisy knows no bounds!
