People are just getting ridiculous now.... a $1000 fine is wayyyy to extreme just for feeding birds. The fine for theft at my store is only $300... that seems a little off to anyone else??? Also this reminds me of that sign underneath 53 and Kirchoff that says "don't feed the pigeons." i have always thought that was funny. I also am against the new cloning of monkey embryos. At what point do humans stop playing god? That is basically what we are all doing and it needs to stop.
