City Council May Ban Feeding of Pigeons

Submitted by DRAGONSLAYER, Nov 12, 2007 02:16

They're noisy, ugly, filthy, and they crap all over everything and everybody. I parked my car overnight recently under a tree and came back to find it devastated by their crap!! It took a half hour just to clean it off and when I was done, the paint finish was permanently damaged. The only thing that will stop this is to punish those who keep feeding them, like the idiot down the street who buys feed every damn day and goes all over the neighborhood dropping it on the sidewalk. And while we're at it, ban the selling of pigeon feed anywhere in the five boros!!
