I actually succeeded beating a speeding ticket making the exact same argument.

The road was straight, no outside access points for 1/2 a mile but the speed limit was marginally set at 25 MPH.

I actually had a room mate once who would dump his dinner plate’s scraps out on the driveway ! I quickly put an end to that bs.

DISGUSTING! He was Jamaican.

In this case, the ordinance should not be on feeding the birds, it should be inclusive of selling bird feeding equipment, too, and punishing the sellers equally or nobody at all.

When bird feeders are outlawed, only outlaws will feed birds.

And imagine if he had a hummingbird feeder filled with, **gasp**, sugar water. Then he would have Doomberg all over his a**.

I don’t know exactly where they live but there are many ponds in that vicinity.

And it’s not the feeder, it’s the droppings from it. Plenty drops for ground feeders.

it is a predicament.....we want to enjoy seeing the turkeys and the deer and the quail and the birds, but we don't want them to mess anything up....

my bird feeders get attacked by the squirrels and the deer....makes me not even want to put feed out....at least there's the hummers....
