Selfish condo-sniffer dog owners letting their dogs shit and piss everywhere reeking the place up, you aren't getting away on the individual responsibility argument. Pick up that poop or you're just as bad as the rest of them.

    yes you are, because you are both dog owners. there is no way absent genetic testing to tell which poop came from which dog. thus the burden of blame falls equally on all of you.

      Ridiculous argument, there's no way for me to know you didn't discard the Gatorade bottle on the street outside, so again, you can't have food or drink outdoors anymore.

        dog shit is much more disgusting than a plastic gatorade bottle and most commonly-encountered trash, which I routinely will myself pick up

        regardless I see dog shit far more often than I see actual litter like that.

          It's biodegradable, unlike plastic trash which is poisoning all of us.

          Yeah me too, even though I'm not responsible for it or required to.

          Irrelevant, also anecdotal, I see the opposite.

      this doesn't track for me because we don't hold other groups collectively responsible for eg. maintaining a car or cleaning up litter. it would track with me that we all clean up our environment as much as we personally can and then hold responsible the ones who actually generate and neglect to clean rubbish, dog poop, etc.
