Why are buskers allowed to bellow out whatever garbage They want through amplifiers which are just as loud and to me more obnoxious?

- hiharryhere 6y agoOh come on. That’s a ridiculous equivalency. Buskers aren’t constantly moving through residential neighborhoods at speed, disturbing hundreds in their homes. I’d be annoyed by a one man band with knee cymbals and a bass drum pacing up and down my cul-de-sac too.
- jschwartzi 6y agoYeah, especially as we get about 1 "loud pipes" guy every half hour throughout the day where I live, I'd love to have Mr. Loud Pipes be regulated into oblivion. It's so bad that I'll be sitting inside with my SO having a conversation and we'll pause whatever we're saying for Mr. Loud Pipes, then when he's gone we can start talking again.
- Ntrails 6y agoThey impact me _way_ more regularly than loud cars - so it is likely a regional thing. Every fucking day I go to work they're there destroying a pleasant walk with my own music. My point was that regulating noise is hard, because people have very different views on what is and isn't reasonable
