City of Orlando District 4 Commissioner Petty Sheehan: not our friend and not yours either
SUPPORT
Sharings are at Lake Eola Park (central and osceola)
Wednesday 5PM and Monday 830AM
Cooking Locations can be discussed at a sharing with a volunteer.
Nobody knows how, but the City of Orlando has won their appeal in the precedent setting Orlando Food not Bombs vs. The City of Orlando case, where; in 2008, it was proven that sharing food with the less-fortunate and hungry; marginalized by our economic system - to highlight that marginalization, and shed light on the politics of hunger is considered expressive conduct under the first amendment.
Today is wednesday, our oldest running day of food-sharing, and it's yet unclear what we can expect, so I urge everyone who can to show up to the food sharing to show support and see for yourself the need vs. the disruption to the park the food sharing is (and maybe, what disruption the city's cronies will be responsible for).
The Court Ruling in the 2008 Federal Case pretty much sums it up: 2008 Court Ruling
This is not the end, this is the beginning. My message to the city: YOU CANNOT WIN. Justice will always win in the end. If your whole government must go to actualize this, it can and will. To be fair, I'll warn you now to get a real job or
I'll see you in line on Wednesday and Monday, you fucks.

this is such a slap to the face. i hope the city knows what it's in for.
Nice quote, Ryan. You are so articulate.
This is definitely a lame situation. I was just able to switch my day off to Mondays, so hopefully now I can start helping with cooking and sharing again.
