Food Donations Banned in NYC!

In New York City,  the mayor Michael Bloomberg banned food donations at homeless shelters. Apparently it was done because they could not regulate how much salt, fiber, and fat are given to the homeless. Technically done for the health benefit of the homeless.

This is outrageous. Denying the homeless food, when they have nothing else to eat. A donation always goes a long way to aid the homeless. Especially if they had not eaten a meal in days! It's not like the donations are all unhealthy. People have tried to donate carrot stew and bagels, but denied.

The worse part is NY is not the first city to start these ridiculous laws and regulations against donating food to the homeless. There are multiple major cities around the U.S. such as; Houston, Las Vegas, and Philadelphia, who have set restrictions.

Is It Truly Worth the Romance?

Some cities still allow horse-drawn carriages. These poor horses are being forced to haul an immense load throughout the city streets. They are forced to walk on the pavement which leads to serious leg damage, and are also breathing exhaust fumes which is not healthy. These horses live a horrid and tormented life.

It's time to take action and voice against this cruelty, and not allow certain broadcasting stations to support this cruelty. CBS in Seattle, Washington recently (February 25th, 2012) showed their support by making an ad about the best carriage rides people can take along the city. CBS Seattle
