LV council OKs homeless ordinance

The Las Vegas City Council this morning unanimously passed an ordinance that bans the feeding of homeless people at public parks. The law bans giving or selling food for a "nominal fee" to "a person whom a reasonable ordinary person would believe to be entitled to apply for or receive assistance" under state law. Councilman Steve Wolfson, who raised concerns that this would prohibit someone from giving a sandwich to a homeless person, said he felt comfortable with how the bill would be enforced after talking with City Attorney Brad Jerbic.

"The marshals will get specialized training on enforcement," he said. "If you bought a couple of burgers and wanted to give them out, you technically would be in violation but you wouldn't be cited."

So let me get this straight: you can't do it. It's against the law, but if you break that law, nothing's going to happen to you. Yeah, that's worth the time.
