Here's an article derived from a
forwarded email and written by
somebody whose opinion may be shared by
many.
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 illegals 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.
Perhaps
it's
time for the government to take down the bird
feeder. If you agree, share this page; if not,
continue cleaning up the poop!

you find yourself the victim of other people's abuses, bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities; remember,
things could be worse. You could be one of them!
