THE BIRD FEEDER

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it up on my back patio and filled it with bird seed. Within a week, I had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and accessible food.
But then, the birds started building nests everywhere…in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbeque.
Then came the p--p. It was everywhere. On the patio floor, on the chairs, on 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. The birds became boisterous and loud, sitting on the feeder, squawking and screaming at all hours, demanding that I fill the thing when it got low on food.
After a while I couldn’t even sit on my back patio anymore. So, I took down the bird feeder and in three days, the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down all the nests they had built. Soon, the backyard was like it used to be…quite and serene with no demands for rights to a free meal.
Let's see our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, free education, and allows anyone who is born here to become an automatic citizen. Then hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants came here. 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 of the class doesn’t speak English, cornflakes now come in a bilingual box, I have to press 1 to hear my bank talk to me in English, people are waving flags other than “old gloryâ€
