Phoenix Forbids Giving Water to the Thirsty

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Summers here in Phoenix get hot enough to make dehydration a serious threat to your health. Fortunately, good Samaritans will pass out bottled water — except when Big Government makes us safe by not letting them:

Dana Crow-Smith said a City of Phoenix worker came up to her during the First Friday festival in downtown Phoenix last month and told her she was violating city code by handing out free water because she did not have a permit.

Now why would even a municipal petty tyrant want to do that?

Crow-Smith and a group of others were there exercising their Christian beliefs by engaging people to talk about religion if they wanted.

Okay, I get it. Be sure to talk about the glories of Allah if you want to pass out water unmolested by the authorities.

The group brought several cases of bottled water to give away in the 112-degree heat, but said a Neighborhood Preservation Inspector told the group they had to stop handing out the water or would be cited.

“It was really hot and yeah we wanted to show God’s love and a small act of kindness is a great way to do that without shoving it down someone’s throat. …

“But I don’t think it’s even about religious beliefs. I think anybody should be able to give away water on the sidewalk to anybody. It’s hot and it’s a nice thing to do,” said Crow-Smith.

So is feeding hungry children. That doesn’t mean the government will let you do it.

Not to worry, there is probably a federal stimulus program in the works that will distribute bottled water to the thirsty at a cost to taxpayers of only $297,468.32 per bottle.

As they say, it’s a dry heat.

On tips from Incitatus, Shawn, Artfldgr, and J.
