An irked citizen files a 311 complaint about conditions in Sweeney Park in South Boston:
Every morning around 7AM, Sweeney Park, turns into a dog park. Our children are forced to play in dog urine and feces. Signage clearly states no dogs allowed!

Delete your original post since you have come off of that ridiculous position.
And no, I don't see where you are going with this. I've already said that people should follow the rules. And the government can encourage that by addressing pent-up demand. Do you disagree with either?
Ummm

are your you trying to pick a fight or just stupid?
the point of my original post was - the solution isn’t find the nearest non dog park and use it as a dog park. - because that’s what I wrote.
sorry that was hard for you.
you follow with there needs to be more dog parks and I counter with that doesn’t mean you can use the parks that exist now as dog parks when that’s not their use.
and here we are.
what is your point with this?
Congrats!

I'd bet you $1 million U-Hubucks* that if there was a dog park near by, people would still go to Fallon Field. Because 'their dog needs more space to run' or 'it's much nearer my house', etc...
Most people are fine just walking their dogs around on leashes, in the Arbs or elsewhere. Fallon seems to be used by people who'd rather stand in one spot and have their dogs run without them.
* U-Hubucks is the crypocurrency I assume Adam will be introducing in 2020 to fund the site.
No bet

I do not dispute that there are selfish people who will do what they want no matter the cost to others. Adam has put together a long list of examples at universalhub.com
Define "responsibility"
By Bob Leponge

By the same token it's not the responsibility of the city to provide a place to play basketball or tennis, nor a place to launch your canoe or kayak, nor a place to swim.
And yet cities do provide dog parks, basketball courts, tennis courts, piers, and swimming pools.
What do you figure is up with that?
It’s not the City’s responsibility

To provide a place for kids to play either.
And for the record, I don’t run and shit my dog.
ok

When I was a child, I had to walk 10 miles to play in poop and urine.
You had poop and urine?

We dreamed of having poop and urine when I was a kid.
Who's minding the puppies?

Who’s shaking down the bookies
And who’s gonna deal the drugs?
Who’s gonna sell the stuff
From TV’s to Persian rugs?
Who’s gonna travel the whole world
Disguised as a couple of yuppies?
And while Whitey’s with the Greig girl
Who’s taking care of the puppies?

Was trash day. I come home from work almost every trash day to find a couple dog shit bags in my empty recycling bin after it has been picked up. So now I have to deal with your dogs shit. I'm sure he's the cutest most lovable thing on earth.
Hate that

and hate anything else that others incorrectly but in the recycling bin. I've found things like food (an apple core, bag of half eaten fast food), a Popsicle stick that was stuck (had to scrape it off and wash it (sugar residue attacks bugs), and, oddest of all, a pair of old sneakers.
The clock is ticking on finding old underwear in there.

Oh f right off. It's actually about 1,000% easier to deal with dog poop without a yard in my experience. Said as a person who picks up extra poos after the thaw every year and goes back to pick up poop if I run out of bags.
