Breakfast Brigade, a homeless outreach group, is asking the City council tonight to restore its special use permit which allowed them to serve meals at Washington Jefferson Park four days a week. What say you?

This type of organization can't afford to own or rent property so public space is the only space available. How does a person eating a burrito make the park hard to use?

Last time I walked through the park (using the outer walkway) during burrito brigade I was charged by a 120+lb dog, then assaulted by a group of 3 transients after yelling at the owner to grab his dog instead of literally beating him across the face while the dog was still within a foot of me.

The burrito brigade then told me to stop causing trouble and go away without asking if I was ok.

So a dog did a dog at you, you lashed out at the owner enough that volunteers thought you should stop.

So we shouldn't feed people.

A careless accident was met with calm, the violent reaction from the owner to the dog was met with an assertive judgement. the violent intent from a group to me was met with loud and intentional defense. The reaction of the volunteers to then blame me was cowardly and craven.
