The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

That's house rules, not law. No way the police has to be involved here.

There is a place for it if viewed from the trespassing angle. I.e. "you brought food, now get out!". That said, this person seems to have done roughly the same as people calling the police on black birdwatchers and such.

If you have a private property and someone refuses to leave after being asked to leave, that is trespass and they may call the police for it.

I personally think it's ridiculous to escalate this situation over food, of all things.
