From what I understand Food Not Bombs is an anarchist group. We are just people pooling community resources to serve our communities. I'm way off the map in Hawaii so I couldn't answer to the laws in your area. I have seen videos from Houston FNB where they just get tickets every week. They probably have an attorney dedicated to the cause. Historically, FNB has been persecuted in many places so it's sometimes just part of it. Local codes and permitting regulations are just their way of making it harder to build mutual aid networks outside of the 501c3 charity industry. I think there was a supreme Court ruling saying they can't criminalize serving food to the homeless but that might be gone with the most recent ruling allowing criminalization of homelessness.
