We really get upset about a guy feeding birds because of some harmless bird ****?

I guess they shouldn't have cars then, since I would hazard a guess that the health costs of cars outweigh the health costs of bird poo by a wide margin. Hard to tell, I had a hard time finding any article that outlined the health costs of pigeons, but when I googled
The health cost of cars came up with:
There are lots of reasons to dislike cars - yet if this story was about neighbors harassing someone for owning a car, would people react the same way? Say the neighbors were in the right for bullying someone that had different values than they do?

I'm ambivalent towards pigeons. You get used to the constant filth on the sidewalks. Avoid trees and your paint will be a-ok!
I fucking hate deer. Most skittish creatures known to man, but will still stop to make friends with your headlights.
PS: since I assume that lolgaxe comes from NYC, he probably does harass people who own cars
PPS: I thought this would be about mutated headcrabs, and got my crowbar for nothing

How this thread, with this title, isn't about NixNot and the avian hatred directed toward him - I'll never understand.

Or if it had been a man in his twenties who decided to play music all night, every night, for years, within levels of local ordinances, but still loud enough to annoy his neighbors. Refusing to stop after being asked to do so by them.
In the end it doesn't matter how dangerous the actions were or how legal it was for the person to do it. What matters was the person was being stubborn and refused to change a very small thing they felt they needed to do that was a source of frustration for his neighbors. By doing so he left himself open to harassment from those in the neighborhood who may be less likely to just sit back and accept it.

Criticize, sure, but from the story told, it went beyond that, which is totally unacceptable. If the anti-pigeon people really wanted the lonely guy to stop feeding animals, that was not the way to go.
I've had lousy neighbours a while back, they annoyed the heck out of me, I never harrassed them about it, it's odd to allow an illegal response to something that is legal. Kind of the thing a normal person does not do.

Most likely, but it still doesn't excuse it though imo.

That's a myth, pigeons are no more diseased infested than any other animal. Granted, a huge group of pigeons can be a terrible nuisance, and it's illegal to feed them in several places nowadays.

I work a block from the beach. Seagulls ******* **** me off sometimes. When I hear a bunch of them outside, I know they are just taking target practice on the cars below.
I didn't mind hearing the seals at my old office location. That was just cute.

I'm more frightened of a flock of seagulls than pigeons. A fair amount actually, quite aggressive creatures.

Yeah, **** nature. All it does is stick to your feet.
Let's delegitimise any benefit someone might conceivably receive from animal contact as lonely delusion. When we see a bird soar, all we should feel is the fear that it might **** on our new Honda.
Finally, someone reasonable.
Just as Planned.
