police arrest 90 year old vet for feeding homeless

1] the man didn't have a "business" - he was simply giving food to the hungry. he was not making any money off of it.
2] by your logic, anybody who gives food to anybody at all would need to go through the permitting process. no more bake sales, no more church socials where food is served. or do you just draw the line at the homeless?

He is on public land.

If he did it in his house he would have the liability, or in a church, then the church could be sued. He wants the public to assume liability for his actions.

Here is many south Florida restaurants with many food violations ...

The public is just suppose to take this guy at his word ? Why even have food inspectors when we can just ask the food provider whether there is anything wrong with their food preparations ?

due to legalism, what kind of world are we making when for fear of the law [which we made in the first place] we do no good for our fellow man?

Again, that wasn't the real reason. They were more concerned with poor and homeless people being drawn to their town, so they used the health issue as a pretext to stop it.
