"Cities are loud so don't enforce laws and go honk your horn by my apartment all day long." Derp.

There is an open air heroin market, the schools blow, the streets look like swiss cheese, and there's dirt bike gangs, this is not a law I give a flying fuck about the city wasting time to enforce

They honk so they dont have a head on collision with other cars on the ramps.

  1. If you had someone honking their car horn outside your window all day long, pretty sure you would care. Basic human mental health issue. If it doesn't bother someone, something Is not right.

  2. Because there are bigger problems doesn't mean give up on any other positive changes. (I'd even argue it is a "broken window theory" issue.)

  3. They don't have to go so fast or honk, they just need to slow down. Honking horn all day not a sane option

There's plenty of laws that no one is enforcing.

Yeah, let's enforce them with priority to the ones that cause death, then injury, then financial loss to average citizens, then noisy minimum wage workers that annoy this karen

The people who enforce the laws about noise ordinances are not taking any resources from those who should be keeping our streets safer, schools better, or housing more available. It's not one or the other.

This guy lives in a nice neighborhood, I'd like to see someone in Southwest Philly call in a noise complaint and have somebody show up with a decibel meter.
