Issue and Opponent: The “Large Group Feeding” ordinance, is an Orlando City law, which requires groups to obtain a permit to serve food, even for free, to groups of 25 or more. Such permits are granted to any group only twice per year. Orlando Food Not Bombs used both of its allowed permits during the year. Orlando mayor Buddy Dyer called the Food Not Bombs activists “food terrorists” when they decided to continue holding their events to feed people in need, despite having already used their assigned permissions. Food Not Bombs shares free vegan and vegetarian meals with the hungry in over 1,000 cities around the world to protest war, poverty, and the destruction of the environment. Dilemma Action: In 2011, after using both of their allowed permits for the year, the Orlando-based NGO Food Not Bombs broke with the ordinance against feeding the homeless, opting instead to share food with poor and hungry people in the community to meet their needs. Because the group of homeless and hungry fed numbered more than 25, the permitted per occasion, those giving the food were arrested due to the new ordinance. Outcome: At least 21 people were arrested during the event. Legal proceedings were initiated against the city for implementing a law that goes against human rights. The Florida Civil Rights Association has requested a public apology from Mayor Dyer for his designation of the Food Not Bombs group as terrorists. The core message of Food Not Bombs is that the government should redirect funding to meet vital human needs instead of spending it on wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
