Title: UPDATE on the Houston Feeding Ordinance
Topic: Feed The Poor
Discussed by Eric Dick
with Eric Dick Law Firm (www.dicklawfirm.com)
Hungry. Will Work For Food. Army Vet. Family at Home. Need Work.
We often see men and women – sometimes even children – holding signs with
similar verbiage driving the streets of Houston (or whatever city you may live
in). Do you offer them money? What about food? Do you bring them a bite to eat
from a restaurant and a bottle of water?
Eric Dick offers an update on the Houston Feeding Ordinance and what people can
and cannot do to help those in need.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
What is the Houston Feeding Ordinance?
Has the ordinance helped the homeless situation in Houston? Or, did the
ordinance simply move the hungry from one part of the city to another?
Are similar ordinances being passed in Democrat-controlled cities across the
nation?
How many homeless people can be fed without the person being fined or arrested?
YES – you can be arrested for feeding the poor!
BUT WAIT – is this in one 24 hour period, or is there a time limit for feeding
them? Listen CLOSE for this answer! It is simply outrageous!
Are churches and other organizations afraid to reach out to the homeless by
providing meals due to this ordinance?
What can we do to help stop this craziness?

Title: Arrested for Feeding the Homeless
Topic: Feed The Poor
Discussed by Eric Dick
with Eric Dick Law Firm (www.dicklawfirm.com)
Houstonian Phillip Paul Bryant doesn’t believe it should be a crime to feed the homeless. In fact, it should be a crime NOT to feed them! Therefore, he has decided to sue the City of Houston.
Eric Dick, Bryant’s attorney, has an update on the case.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Why is Eric Dick representing Phillip Paul Bryant, and others, pro-bono?
Is Houston the only city in America that does not allow people to feed the homeless on the streets?
Has anyone “really” been arrested and placed in jail for feeding the homeless?
Is there evidence that a homeless person has ever gotten sick from food they were given?
HINT: Nope!
What is the fine for feeding the homeless in Houston?
What is Eric Dick’s argument against the City of Houston?
Eric has chosen to keep the case in state court, not federal court. Why?
YOU can help Eric fight the City! Call City Hall at 713.437.5559 and tell them that everyone should be allowed to feed the homeless anywhere and anytime we wish.

Title: Help Fight The Ordinance That Targets The Homeless, The Hungry, and The Weak!
Topic: Feed The Poor
Discussed by Phil Owens
with Free to Give Houston
Should the government tell non profits, churches, and citizens that
"they should not be feeding the poor, and IF they feed more than 4-5, they will
be fined!"?
Why don't the liberals want charities and churches helping the poor? Is this a
new phenomenon or a classic liberal tactic so that people depend on the
government?
In reference to
www.FreeToGiveHouston.org , is there an organization that is working with a
number of churches and nonprofits to overturn this controversial Houston city
ordinance? Why is a petition necessary?
