Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I mean...yeah? Most people are ignorant of things like this because they don't know any better. I can't be particularly upset at some random park goer that doesn't know all the nutritional needs of a duck, because why would I assume that's knowledge they would have? Feeding ducks bread is sort-of ingrained in the public mind, it will take education and time to undo that.
I've seen signs up at some parks lately that explain this to people, and that's a start, but they need to be more widespread, and it will take time.
Showing compassion to strangers and not assuming ill will? Sir the Internet is going to have to ask you to leave. /S
