F*CK the police.

Keep serving food.

Dare someone to arrest you or fine you for feeding the hungry. Then show up at their stupid little church the next Sunday and ask them to explain it to you.



I forget if it was last summer or the previous one, but something like 35 people got arrested in Orlando for doing food not bombs. As far as I know, it still hasn't stopped them.

Not just bread, but produce too. All of the produce we get comes from the docks, and its all perfectly good produce, just stuff thats slightly too ripe to send out to the stores, or slightly bruised.

in Canada this is a problem because the homeless would eat the old food and get sick then sue the suppliers, so now the extra food goes to the dump over fear of lawsuits

Odds are whatever city you live in has a food not bombs, go get some free food. In addition to the hot meals we serve, we also gives out bags of produce if people want some food to take home.
