I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed.
What a beauty of a bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed.
Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking
advantage of the
continuous flow of free
and easily accessible
food.
But then the birds started
building nests in the
boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.
Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the
patio tile, the chairs, the table .. everywhere!
Then some of the birds
turned mean. They would
dive bomb me and try to
peck me even though I hadfed them out of my
own pocket.
And others birds were
boisterous and loud.
They sat on the feeder and squawked and
screamed at all hours of the day and night
and demanded that I fill it
when it got low on food.
After a while, I couldn't even sit on my own back
porch anymore.. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone.
I cleaned up their mess and took down the
many nests they had built
all over the patio.
Soon, the back yard was like it used to be ......
quiet, serene.... and no one demanding their
rights to a free meal.
Now let's see......
Our government gives
out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care and free education, and allows anyone born here to be an automatic
citizen.
Then the illegal's came by the tens of thousands.
Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5
families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen
by an emergency room doctor; Your
child's second grade class is behind other
schools because over half the class doesn't
speak English.
Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have
to 'press one ' to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other
than ”ours” are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.
Just my opinion, but maybe it's time for the
government to take down the bird feeder.
If you agree, pass it on; if not, just continue
cleaning up the poop!
