Here's a touchy (or not touchy) subject. Chapel Hill is considering a 
speech restriction ordinance aimed at panhandlers. Of course, this is 
based on a 'good' aim; to make people who see panhandlers not feel so 
guilty see http://www.theonion.com/onion3910/homeless_people.html for a 
comic take on this.

Internetworker,  Ruby Sinreich, has made a set of references about the 
issue from a civil liberties and other viewpoints at
http://lotusmedia.org/ch/

Ruby and other invite those of us who live in Chapel Hill to read, be 
informed and sign a letter to the Chapel Hill Town Council about the 
ordinance. See and sign at http://lotusmedia.org/ch/memo.html

If you live some place else, you need not sign.

Keep Chapel Hill Weird,
P
