Im not talking about a loose dog. I mean a dog, behind a chain link fence in a backyard. Kids can walk up to that fence, put their hand in to pet the dog, and get bitten.
See, in your scenario, kids would have to come onto the private property (unsupervised by their parents, remember, its YOUR job to watch your kids, not mine). Kids unsupervised on that other person's property would "get hurt" by the scrap pieces of metal. The metal causes no safety hazard unless the kid, again, unsupervised by their parent, comes onto the private land of another. Just like they would by coming onto the land to pet the fenced dog and getting bitten.
SO........should the cops ban us from keeping a dog behind a fence in our yard since a kid could walk up to that fence and get bitten?
I suggest a law that bans you from putting your trash into those big plastic containers by the street. Yep. You must wait for the trash truck, then bring the trash yourself out of the home and give it to them.
See.......trash outside by the road (which is how Mt P does it) smells, and could attract spiders, snakes, rats. Oh gosh, it could even attract one of the tens of thousands of alligators in the Lowcountry, and all that is dangerous.
Yep. Mount Pleasant needs to ban dogs in the backyard, even if fenced in. And it needs to ban trash from being placed in those official containers by the road.
Oh, and we need to ban flowers on the property, since they attract bees. Bees could sting a kid, and some kids are allergic to bees, so we gotta ban those flowers also.
Robyn, you gonna support my proposed bans?
