Wish we could pass a law against nuisance tattle tails. Have to prove you were somehow affected by the issue in order to report it otherwise you get fined for being excessively nosey and ignored.
I'm sure there are all sorts of problems with this idea, but a guy can dream.
Yeah unfortunately we just cannot plug all the holes these dickhead people take advantage of.
The only thing that works is people not being dickheads. Society is held together by people being morale and nice without laws or rules making them do so.
Honestly, the main problem is no your neighbor, but the law itself
Nah it’s the neighbor.
There are cases like this all throughout life where society is held together by people just being nice.
We will never reach a point where every old law is removed, every needed law is created, every loose end tied up. It isn’t possible.
We depend on people being cordial and respectful for society to work. Personal responsibility.
Yep, I think you are right
