First Sharing Ban Vote Passes in Dead of Night

In case there were any doubts about the composition and intent of the City of Fort Lauderdale, last night's, or should we say, this morning's, Commission meeting should wash them away. The meeting dragged on for over 7 hours before the "sharing ban ordinance" was introduced - except it wasn't called a "sharing ban" and the wording in the agenda made absolutely no mention of what the "Unified Land Development Regulation" was about.

Passing a deceptively worded ordinance to deprive food from homeless people in the middle of the night. What's a word for that? Let's try Scumfucks.

The City Commission of Fort Lauderdale, Jack Seiler, Bruce Roberts, Romney Rogers, Bobby Dubose, and Dean Trantalis are Scumfucks. There's no pretense of democracy in this process. It's just rich people and their lackeys, fucking over poor people and asking for public consent...except they don't get any from anyone who is actually aware of what they're doing.  

Fortunately, homeless advocates got sick and tired of this pretense quite awhile ago and planned our own forum to take place on Saturday, October 18th so the public can REALLY decide what to do about homeless hate laws and police brutality against the homeless. 

This leaves about 3 weeks until a likely enforcement date of Friday, October 31st, with violators facing 60 days in jail/$500 fine. Yes, for sharing food with the homeless. We will have more information about that soon but better yet join us at the forum, one week from Saturday! We will also have some video highlights from this late night hate-fest when it becomes available. Many that stayed declared a desire to disobey this law if and when it becomes law. What will you do this Halloween?
