How is it that giving money to political campaigns is an expression of free speech, but giving food to the homeless isn't? If municipalities couldn't pass a law prohibiting speaking to homeless people, how, in a post-"Citizens United" world, can they pass a law prohibiting giving food to homeless?

  You're being downvoted for being right (correct) and right (not a leftist) at the same time. Happens often here. Grab a chair.

  Don't read too much into downvotes. With no ability to correct a vote, it's sometimes just fat fingers.
