Philly: Judge blocks enforcement of homeless feeding ban

Mayor Nutter's plan to take distribution of free food to homeless people out of the parks to the front of City Hall and, ultimately, indoors was blocked this morning by a federal judge.

Ruling from the bench after two days of testimony and an hour of oral argument, U.S. District Judge William H. Yohn said he saw no evidence feeding homeless people outside City Hall was any better or more dignified than on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

"It seems to me that . . . the parks provide more dignity than the concrete apron outside City Hall," Yohn said.

Nutter is the clown who just attempted to have fire department workers deny National Gathering Occupiers any water.

No offense to clowns.

"“Nutter testified for about 90 minutes Tuesday, defending the ban [on feeding the homeless in city parks] as part of his plan to end homelessness in Philadelphia.” Oh, OK. These programs have been running for years with nary a problem, and they fed a lot of people. Matthew 25:44. …"

2. Same as with the CCA in Los Angeles. "Ending homelessness" means either running them

out of town, or letting them die from lack of compassionate response.
