all good. i wasn’t arguing with your post, just continuing the conversation. also agreed about the term being misapplied with regards to freedom of speech.

no, the saying doesn’t apply to property usage, but let’s not forget that the OP is in the wrong here legally. she doesn’t have enough land, according to the laws where they live, to keep a rooster. the move here is to come to a reasonable agreement outside of the laws. if one can’t be...

different animals altogether. noise in the city is constant. it actually just all becomes white noise. it’s like being at a football game. by the second quarter you don’t notice how loud it is anymore even though there’s 60,000 people yelling. noise in the country is usually sudden and abrupt...

you won’t win this one because you’re in the wrong. it doesn’t matter how stupid the rule is or whether or not you agree with it. those are the rules for where you live and you’re in violation of them. digging in and telling your neighbor that you “cannot and will not get rid of your rooster”...
