Citizen complaint of the day: Stop making the harbor flood

Boston Harbor

A concerned citizen in Charlestown who might possibly not realize that Boston Harbor drains into this giant ocean demands the city stop this snow dumping into the harbor forthwith:

Harbor almost flooding. Please stop allowing snow in harbor. I don't want our homes flooded.

The city marked the case closed as "noted."

I want to laugh but I am terrified that people who think like this pass me every day. Have they heard of tides or gravity, or even consider where else the water will go?

He/She is from Kansas.

We live in MA. People like this operate motor vehicles!

Laugh and be terrified, they might be steering the ship of state:

SMH.

Here's hoping that this is just a joke.

Stop flushing your toilet. That will reduce the amount of water entering the harbor. Get your neighbors to pitch in, and the problem will be solved in no time!

The tide was almost 12ft, when it was high at 10. This person should go back outside now, he/she will feel a lot better.

"Wow, they listened. Citizens' Connect is wicked awesome."

I'm waiting for this person to submit another ticket on the next rising tide.

An understandable error. He was looking for Citizen Canute.

Absolutely brilliant.

Noted. In future, we will dump our snow in your yard instead of in the harbor

instead.
