No permit...No water....REALLY?????


When I came across this story this morning online….I was shocked, disgusted, amazed…hell I don’t even know what word I should use to describe what I thought. However this much I do know, our country is going to hell in a hand basket when we can no longer do good deeds for one another without having to pay somebody to “allow” us to do them. This woman was handing out bottles of water in 112 degree weather….isn’t that a good deed? I mean if I was outside walking around during a festival in that kind of heat I would love it if someone handed me a FREE bottle of water…wouldn’t you? I get the fact that she was doing it during a festival, but it was FREE she wasn’t SELLING anything. I think we can all see the problem here…she was giving away FREE water while getting her message across AND she didn’t pay money to the city to be “allowed” to do so. Therefore the city didn’t get any money and they were pissed about that.

I amend John Whitehead from The Rutherford Institute and think the city should issue her an apology.  The sad part is that this issue shouldn’t have had to come down to religion and someone’s 14th amendment rights…all that happened here was a good person doing a good thing…and I think this world needs a little bit more of that myself!
