I briefly worked in Squirrel Hill teaching the inner city kids. I would see these couches and such in front or on almost every porch along each street there.

That being said, it may be an eyesore for some, but if it’s their property, they should be able to put whatever seating they want in front of their house.

We’re still AMERICA!

Hell, when I was a kid, we reengineered one of those spring loaded clothes pins to shoot a farmer match (wooden match to you white necks), so as we rode our bikes .. we'd shoot a match to hit the ground, ignite and bounce into the pile of leaves raked at the curb.

We were stealth bombers then and didn't know it.

Ban clothes pins, farmer matches, bikes, little boys, leaves, the rakes that make the piles, the people that use the rakes ...

I think I'm beginning to understand the psychology of those whack jobs that just say phuque it ... and start shooting.

I would say arson is attempted murder. Anyone attempting to burn my property on my porch would have a Sig 229 in 40 cal in their face.

“We’re still AMERICA!”

Not as much as we were November 3, 2008 and before!

Yeah but I’m sure if it was across the street from your lovely home you’d be the first to say NIMBY!

People are always very quick to be flexible when it isn’t their problem. It’s awful and there’s no reason a couch or sofa should be on a porch. It’s just a place for mice and other rodents to take up residence and cause a nuisance; so from a health perspective, I consider it “garbage” and nobody would allow someone to keep garbage on their porch for weeks and months....
