but this did it - We were beginning to think all the idiots had moved to California ... well, and Virginia. Then came the new ordinance in Fayetteville, North Carolina -- here's part of it - (2) Screening required for breeders a. Breeders must screen all acts of animal copulation from view by providing either: 1. A six foot solid fence or wall; or 2. Dense landscaping to include large screening trees every ten feet apart or a continuous row of large evergreen shrubs with a maximum separation of six feet apart. The shrubs shall attain minimum height of six feet at maturity. The rest of the ordinance is the usual truly nasty and useless stuff. But at least there's some comic relief.
