Man Swept Up Breadcrumbs a Woman Left for Squirrels — She Came Out With a Plank

[LibertyWeeps]

Seems she placed bread crumbs on city property, since it was outside of her property line.

City offices usually frown on people feeding animals in public, because it can cause an invasion of animals to that specific area.
And if they set up shop in that area, they can do damage to property......depending on what animals they are. They can also cause irregular noises occurring during the night and early hours, waking people up. They can also get into basements, attics, and garages.

I don't condone feeding squirrels in your yard, but do it ON YOUR PROPERTY. Then you are covered if anybody tries to keep you from doing it. Some cities do have laws regarding feeding "wild animals" though.

She obviously didn't want the squirrels on her property, since she fed them on the street. Which means she knows exactly what she was doing.

The man was cleaning it up to keep the squirrels away, but he was also doing it for the squirrels protection.
Squirrels coming to eat that bread could have been attacked by dogs, large birds, or ran over by violent drivers.
So it was as much for the squirrels safety as it was to keep them away.

Legally, she is at fault 100%.
My opinion is that nothing was wrong with putting crumbs out, but she ended my backing of this when she hit that man.
Nope. Not gonna back a criminal.

The man should have explained to her why he was sweeping it up. I'm sure the woman wouldn't want road kill at the end of her driveway.

Squirrels are just rats who live in trees.

Bird feeders are just as bad. The only birds I like are the ones we can eat, like turkeys and chickens.

We didn't have squirrels when I lived in town--we had feral cats. I live trapped them and took them to the pound and they'd do the euthanizing. Then I didn't have to poison the ones in my back yard.

The crumbs were in the public easement.

That's irrelevant.

There's utility poles and fire hydrants in the easement too. That doesn't mean you can just take them.

The crumbs were in the public easement. Nice try though.

Their property. I would beat your ass.

You can pick up litter though. Try again.

Ya don't get to run around smacking people with a deadly weapon unless in self defense. She should go straight to jail with out passing go.

I would agree.

He was disrupting something....she could negotiate that one away. Call the cops.

Assaulting him? Not cool.

I would have loved reporting the assault and watching her go to jail.

I am an angry old man with angry dogs.

I actually throw out old bread, but in the back yard.

Unless she killed you, you mean.

After about two thousand dollars in car repairs, evidently squirrels like electric wire, Mom had to sink a good bit of money into enclosing the garage. Squirrels might seem cute, but they are nasty animals that no one should feed. Besides, they kind of got a system down concerning food.

We have a bird feeder. I got sick & tired of feeding those damn things. Sooo, I now spike the birdseed with ground up cayenne pepper. Birds aren't bothered by it. I'd use Habanero but I can't find it ground up.
