Question

Is it really true that it is against the law to feed the homeless in Gainesville, Florida?

Answer 1

u know what, i dunno but theres enough of them around there thats fo sho. i was in gainesville last year and there was like bums camped around every single highway exit!!!

Answer 2

i live in the ville and there are a large number of homeless people hanging around. to tell the truth i am not sure if there is a law against it but i sure hope there is. its really awkward to have homeless people asking you for money, food, etc around the campus periphery. its not fair that poor, broke students should feel guilty about not giving a homeless person food or money....not to sound awful but once you start feeding and accommodating homeless people, they grow in number...

Answer 3

that's messed up.
