AITA: 'I evicted them': Landlord evicts young couple with baby following noise complaints from neighbors, gives them 30 days to move

A landlord took to Reddit, asking their opinion on the fact he evicted new parents, giving them only 30 days to skedaddle. His reasoning was that their new baby made a lot of noise, and the neighbors had begun to complain. Is it insensitive? Yes. Is it illegal? We would think so, but apparently, he doesn't live in the US, and stated that it was actually completely legal for him to do so, as it landed under some sort of 'noise pollution' category.

Babies are noisy creatures, duh. They cry, babble, screech, and make a variety of sounds, but that's pretty normal because well, they're babies. They aren't the brightest at that age. We'd argue that humans don't always evolve either. Sometimes they mentally stay 3 years old. Now, this particular landlord asked the new parents to soundproof their home (meaning, his home, legally) but they couldn't afford it. So he was certain that he was 'in the right' because, after all, he had tried. Yet, if he was so sure of himself, he probably wouldn't have dared enter the r/AITA subreddit, a place where guilty people expose their deepest insecurities and grabble for some validation, because deep down, they know they're in the wrong.
