No dang bird feeders...!!!

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 is, 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 had fed 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 2nd 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 'Old Glory' 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.
