The busted jury panel illuminates the potential difficulties the city could face in enforcing its controversial law through a jury of peers. Roughly 90 tickets have been issued since March to volunteers with the loosely organized Food Not Bombs, which serves meals to people in need near Central Library. The city has yet to win a single case. The one case that reached a verdict was decided for the plaintiff.
City attorneys have repeatedly asked for the other cases to be reset, according to the defendant’s lawyers. On Thursday, two other cases against Food Not Bombs volunteers were dismissed, said Remington Alessi, who represented the volunteers, because the city had not filed responses to motions.

[Photo ID: Rainbow gradient background image of bowls of fruit and vegetables. Two color photos are on top of this image. One shows a table full of food on a sidewalk at night. Some people are visible standing nearby. The other shows the ground next to the table full of bottled water, pizza boxes, and sandwiches in a bag. Text around reads 'St. Pete Food Not Bombs. January 03, 2024' and 'transfloridaresources.' /End ID]
We're revving up for an election year so prepare for a lot of political theatre that is going to be aimed specifically at trans people. A tangible way that you can combat the feelings of grief and despair is to look to your community and see where you can help. I would actually especially advise that you seek to go outside the LGBT realm and (respectfully) involve yourself with other groups, hear about other struggles. Trans people are not the first group to be targeted by society/legislature & many trans people have identities that intersect from other oppressed groups. The more you learn outside of your personal struggle, the stronger you become, the better ally you can be to others as well. Of course, across the state of Florida, the spaces you have access to will differ. That's part of why these accounts also exist, to boost individuals and causes online that you can give to if you truly can't access anything in person (I will have some posts coming up in a moment for that too, actually!). However, there is usually something somewhere. Look to your libraries, community centers, there's so many places. I recommend seeking out a Food Not Bombs location, if you need a place to start. These photos are from the St. Pete branch & if you're local to that you can find more info at @stpetefnb & come out too! Otherwise, take a look at the map at http://foodnotbombs.net/info/locations/ and reach out to see what's active. I promise you, the kindness you can provide to unhoused people does not go unnoticed & you will meet some great folks as well. Look into the history of any of the community leaders we look up to and you will see them doing work like this. Community must be nurtured, people need to be fed and cared for, in order for us to make progress otherwise. Don't let your personal grief stand in the way of achieving connection with a neighbor. Do not isolate. We all are more understanding and loving than we are made to believe we are, because paranoia and isolation breeds the best followers. Don't listen to any of that. Go out and spread love and get love in return.

Help Houston chapter of Food Not Bombs
The 10-year-old ordinance in Houston making it illegal to provide food for the houseless except in extremely niche circumstances was never enforced, but HPD have begun cracking down on volunteers providing food and aid on the streets.
Since this past March, volunteers have been ticketed and fined from anywhere between $2,000 and $10,000 for feeding the hungry. The official charge on the ticket? "CONDUCT A FOOD SERVICE EVENT (FEED HOMELESS)."

If you have anything to spare, please consider donating to the Houston Peace and Justice Center, the fiscal sponsor for the Houston Food Not Bombs chapter.

One of my friends wants to maybe revive the FNB chapter in our city. She knows one of the people who used to run it, helped with a distribution session in another city, and might go to another (closer) city to help with distribution and get advice.
She asked me if I was interested. I have Never Done Anything Like That before.
So uh. Anyone here got experience running/participating in a Food Not Bombs and got advice/tidbits to share? We still aren’t 100% sure we’re Gonna Do This but my friend seems excited (I am Nervous)

(Source) Charitable Organization "Food not Bombs" getting ticketed for feeding the Homeless outside of a public library.
Good news is that so far (as of December 21st 2023) all of their cases have either been dismissed or won in court! (source)
The tickets are being written under the Feeding Ordinance passed in 2012 under Mayor Anise Parker (source) Residents of Houston feel free to write to the mayor's office and tell them to get rid of the Feeding Ordinance!
Help them pay the tickets

Excerpts from article:
The busted jury panel illuminates the potential difficulties the city could face in enforcing its controversial law through a jury of peers. Roughly 90 tickets have been issued since March to volunteers with the loosely organized Food Not Bombs, which serves meals to people in need near Central Library. The city has yet to win a single case. The one case that reached a verdict was decided for the plaintiff. City attorneys have repeatedly asked for the other cases to be reset, according to the defendant's lawyers. On Thursday, two other cases against Food Not Bombs volunteers were dismissed, said Remington Alessi, who represented the volunteers, because the city had not filed responses to motions.
...
Smith's partner, Clay Conrad, thought the issue of feeding the homeless could intersect with deeply held values so much that those values could express themselves even after an "unbiased" jury is selected. He's written a book on jury nullification, which happens when jurors believe in the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt but still acquit.  "A lot of times, a jury will nullify the law while thinking they followed it. Because they're interpreting the facts and the law in a way to get to a verdict that they feel they can be proud of," he said. "At the end of the day, the jury has to decide: Is this guy a criminal, or is he a good neighbor? I could see the jury saying, 'This guy is a good neighbor.'"
