Noise making that disrupts other people's tranquility.
Yes! The amount of people who feel entitled to blast noise is too damn high! I was gonna comment on playing noise n speakers in public settings, but I'll happily pile on here.
Leaf blowers and my neighbor's power washer that emits a high pitched tone like a mosquito ringtone the whole time he runs it. It pierces my brain.
Disturbing the peace isn't illegal?
The people using speaker on transit, or blasting external speakers while hiking through otherwise perfectly good woods… are disturbing the peace, sure. So are the college kids two floors up when they’re pre-gaming at 9pm. But the police would not take any of these calls seriously, unless the OP rule/law were in place.
I’ll defend people playing music through speakers in the woods…. It’s the fucking woods. It’s away from civilization. You’ll be away from them shortly. It’s fiiiiine. It’s not like you’re captive on public transportation.
Boo. That shit carries so far. I go to the woods to get away from human bullshit. I'd much prefer the wind through the land with a birdsong accompaniment.
