    I'm ALMOST POSITIVE that a homeless person doesn't give a rats ass about macros.

    There are homeless people that would eat the rat's ass if they could catch it and cook it.

    Banning food donation is bullshit.
    Another effort aimed at increasing the food stamp roster...oh, wait, they have to have an address to get food stamps.
    Taking food out of the mouths of people who need it the most.
    You can bet he's never missed a meal.

    I donate food to shelters and the food bank every week no matter where I live.
    If I lived in NY I'd still donate food, Bloomberg be damned.

    The people keep electing the fucker. It's their job to vote someone else in.

    On the other hand if everybody starts donating anyway what is the city going to do? Arrest everybody?

    Unfortunately, most of the homeless don't vote.

    While that MAY very well be true, this is the same dipshit that banned sugary drinks over what, 24 ounces? I really wouldn't put it past him to do something this stupid.
    Rules? You mean we have RULES for that???

    we do drink too much soda, when I was a kid we drank water from the garden hose, but the fear of dirty tap water makes us only feel safe if drinks are pre-bottled. Soda cups were about 12 ounces now they are 64 and thats like walking around with a 2 liter bottle.

    i used to volunteer time to a food bank run by a church that would turn people away without id, social security card, and proof of address because of state subsidies. i thought it was pure greed. there would be plenty of food and they'd tell people to come back with proper documents, even people with kids.

    I'm not arguing whether we drink too much sugar or not. I'm saying it's absurd for the gubmint to step in and put an arbitrary limit on how much is okay?

    I totally agree its supposed to be a free market and if the demand is there the government should tell people whats a legal amount of soda to buy. Its not like they outlawed 2 liter bottles, just the cup you put ice in.

    San Diego Residents Face 6 Years In Prison For Washing Their Car




    New environmental water rules enforced by citizen snitch program
    Paul Joseph Watson
    Infowars.com
    November 13, 2012

    San Diegans could face 6 years in prison and fines of $100,000 dollars a day for washing their car in the driveway or failing to pick up dog poop under new EPA-mandated environmental regulations related to water quality.

    Although residents of the city are forced to drink toxic waste in their water supply in the form of sodium fluoride, measures imposed as a consequence of the Environmental Protection Agency?s Clean Water Act would turn the most mundane of activities into a criminal offense.
    ?California?s latest experiment in faith-based policymaking is being unleashed today on the San Diego public, as regional water-quality officials begin hearings on new regulations that seem crafted to turn most owners of a car, house or dog into criminals within a decade or so. We wish we were exaggerating,? reports the North County Times.
    ?Under the draft rules, ordinary homeowners may face six years in prison and fines of $100,000 a day if they are deemed serial offenders of such new crimes as allowing sprinklers to hit the pavement, washing a car in the driveway, or, conceivably, failing to pick up dog poop promptly from their own backyards, let alone the sidewalk.?
    The regulations will be enforced with the aid of a 24-hour telephone snitch line which residents of San Diego, south Orange and southwest Riverside counties can use to report on their neighbors for violating the new code.
    The new rules could even force firefighters to collect the water they use to douse burning buildings.
    The regulations are being passed under the justification of minimizing the bacteria Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) that runs into rivers and streams.
    The editorial board of the North County Times warns that the rules are ?preposterous? and will ?sap billions of dollars from the local economy.?
    ?In hundreds of pages, the new regulations set targets that measure bacteria from animal waste during dry periods at local beaches, even as they note that wide variations in bacteria occur naturally in the environment. And we could find no evidence from these officials that severe cuts in stormwater runoff will cause improvements in human or wildlife health. Indeed, nowhere do they bother to say why today?s levels are considered bad for us,? writes the newspaper.
    Ironically, while San Diegans could be turned into criminals for failing to uphold dubious water quality standards, they are simultaneously being forced to consume drinking water contaminated with a known toxic waste - sodium fluoride.
    Almost 60 years after it was barred from public pumps and pipes, the city utilities department started fluoridating the water supply in San Diego again last year.
    As numerous studies and expert testimony affirm, sodium fluoride is a toxic waste from the phosphate industry and has been linked with innumerable debilitating and in some cases terminal health problems such as disorders affecting teeth, bones, the brain and the thyroid gland, as well as lowering IQ.
    Environmentalists and EPA regulators don?t appear to be too concerned about a product which has on its packaging a skull and crossbones being artificially added to the water supply, but the runoff from a car wash or a piece of dog poop apparently poses a big enough threat to turn residents into criminals for engaging in activity as mundane as cleaning their vehicle.
    Stephanie Gaines, land use and environmental planner for the county?s Department of Public Works, pointed out that ?The regulations stem from the federal Environmental Protection Agency?s Clean Water Act and are passed down to the state, regional, and local levels.?
    Planning group member Chad Anderson said that the regulations appeared to ?Overlap with statements from Agenda 21, the comprehensive global plan for sustainable development that was created at a United Nation?s Earth Summit in 1992. It was signed by more than 178 countries, including the United States, and opponents say it targets private property.?
    As we have previously highlighted, the UN?s Agenda 21, which is being implemented across the United States in a number of different guises, demands that member nations adopt ?sustainable development? policies that are little more than a disguise for the reintroduction of neo-feudalism and only serve to reduce living standards and quality of life.
    The regulations about to be foisted upon San Diegans are merely a taste of the kind of big government tyranny and control freak micromanagement we can expect to see unleashed against Americans under the guise of environmentalism when real environmental issues like toxic waste being added to the water supply are completely ignored.

    When I was a kid I loved getting those Big Gulps and filling it with Ice you get a few sips of pure soda and then its watered down. I was a weird kid I liked watered down root beer....

    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
