Everyone in Houston, TX needs to break this law:

… Also, vote out your city council and get a fucking new one.

July, 2012:

HOUSTON - (KPRC) -- A new ordinance that puts guidelines on feeding Houston's homeless goes into effect Sunday, but not everyone is happy about it.

Starting July 1, it is now illegal to feed five or more homeless people. Houston has the largest homeless population in the state of Texas with an estimate close to 10,000 people.

"The poor and homeless sometimes aren't pretty but they are citizens of the United States of America. And they are human beings. They have rights. And they deserve to be treated with dignity," said Civil Rights Attorney Randall Kallinen.

There's a $500 fine for anyone feeding five or more homeless people within the city of Houston.
