leaves are just the tip of the iceberg.
If someone lives in an urban
environment they agree to be like the others in the area including
maintaining their surroundings.

Oh, really, is that how it works in your area? Is that a new law?
Did you sign such an agreement when you bought your house? If I buy
a house and the neighborhood happens to be overwhelmingly Protestant,
must I convert? Or the neighbors let their 5 year olds play in the
middle of the street. Must I do that too? If I'm balck and move
into a white neighborhood, well, I guess that would be a real tough
one.

You know exactly what I meant and are just presenting an specious
argument trying to discredit what I wrote.
