LOS ANGELES (AP) - The chickens have come home to roost for Los Angeles city dwellers who keep roosters. The City Council on Tuesday passed an ordinance thatwith few exceptionsallows only one rooster per property. It was spurred by complaints over noise and hygiene and concerns over illegal cockfighting. Janice Hahn, who authored the bill, says it will give residents of her district some peace and quiet. Neighborhoods from the harbor to the San Fernando Valley are sometimes annoyed by concerts from crowing roosters. Real estate developer Michael Mekeel says tenants of his Panorama City development have had to turn up their TVs and wear earplugs. The law takes effect in November and carries fines of up to $250.

That guy did both.
Met him in Zarbruken Germany when he was opening for “Megadeath” while I was in the USAF.
Not the most eloquent dude off the cuff...
“wow, you guys speak English.”
“Of course we do, were American!”
“you came all that way for the concert?”
“Nope, were here to occupy Germany; you know ‘either at your feet or at your throat’.”
Holla back at ya bro!
Never got a chance to see them in concert. I hear they are touring again. Reminds me of my High School days...
The alternative scene was great in the 90’s...
The worst pairing of all time just HAD to be “the Jimi Hendrix Experience” opening for “the Monkeys”. How could an actor with a little musical training take the stage after THAT?
The White House already has one bantum rooster running around with his tail feathers up and crowing about himself all the time.
Thass Lost Angelees faw ya. Makin' the world---ah say, makin' the world safe from rampant chickenry . . . !
How about some cap and trade. They can have my rooster for a Thanksgiving Turkey.
racist
A racist law if I ever saw one.
Well that goes without saying! Fortunately the word has lost all meaning in a present-Obama America.
