Rap -

We (or some of us at least) have been trying to discourage people from feeding the d#$%! things so they will go back north, at least for the summer.

But people (who don't hang around to clean up after them) think they're just so cute!.

We need a few more black bears in the neighborhood, to let 'em feed them cute little buggers... (Gene pool improvement?)

Unfortunately when wild critters mix with populations of idiots, the critters are always the ones to get messed up. As when people put out bird feeders in the fall, 'cause "everybody's doing it;" but then they neglect putting out the feed when it gets cold enough to kill the birds that postponed migration. ....

(insert interminable series of mumbles ... and #@$!)
