With these VIP posts, I think now and then it would be good occasionally to slay a misunderstanding of the law I see on Twitter. Sometimes they are common, sometimes they are not.
It started the other day with this video:
Houston Food Not Bombs (which has been around since 1994) has now been ticketed at least 30 times for sharing free food with unhoused neighbors.

Each ticket is $2000!
It specifically says “feed homeless” on the citation. pic.twitter.com/Ih46KEnb5h
