Just got yelled at for not pickuing up my dogs yellow pee from the snow by an old fart! what should I do?

I got told by some old fart in my apartment area outside to pick up my dogs yellow pee in the snow with a plastic bag? This lunatic actually told me she would report me ! Should I pick it up, or should I leave it. Points for anyone who helps me with this dilemma ! I live in Michigan by the way

1. He's just a cranky old guy. Don't think anything of it. Leave the pee. It'll eventually melt anyway.
2. Ignore him. You can't pick up pee in the snow with a bag, what an idiot!
3. There is no law anywhere for cleaning pee. Talk to your apartment manager and confirm you are not responsible to pick up urine. I am sure they will laugh!
4. toss some white snow on top of it..not much else you can do...No bag is big enough to pick up all the snow that turns yellow due to the urine... Critters: I was going to mention something like that, but due to the fact that it's a federal offense to mess with someone's blah blah blah, I didn't want to get a VN for "hate speech" or worse..terrorism!
5. Ignore him. The guy's a moron.
6. Leave it! Who picks up pee? You can't, it's not like she is going to be eating/playing in the snow. As long as you pick up the poo, which all dog owners do hopefully, there is no reason to be yelled at. And if she reports you, they will probably laugh in her face for her wanting you to pick up yellow snow. Don't worry about it, she is probably a miserable old lady with nothing else to do than yell at dogs.
7. Aha, just ignore him. If he did report you, they'd most likely think it was a hoax and laugh at him. :L
8. During the winter time I actually pick up my dog's pee when there is snow on the ground. I live in a very urban area where both adults and children walk on the sidewalks and play in the snow. My dogs are very small so one normal sized snow ball usually does it. However, there is no law (that I know of) that says you have to do this. But honestly if you live in an area that is heavily trafficked by dogs the yellow snow does become quite gross. At least throw some snow on top of it.
9. LOL make some lemonade. Go walk your dog. Right before he comes by dribble some in the snow. When he says something pick it up and eat it. He will likely think you are insane and not mess with you anymore. Edit: Reality Check gave me an idea--you can make snowballs out of it and leave them in the crack under his door. i'm sure the smell after a few days will drive him crazy and he won't care about the pee OUTSIDE anymore. Thanks Reality check :)
10. If it is in a very well traveled area with other dogs coming along & peeing in the same spot & her peeing again tomorrow & the next day the pee would look pretty gross. But if it were summer time no one would know cause it just seeps into the ground. I guess it would depend on how courteous other people are. Do they pick it up, shovel snow on top..... I don't think you can be expected to clean up pee. Just think of all the pee in a dog park. Nasty, huh? But dogs have to pee. leave it.
11. THAT IS HILLARIOUS. I'd tell her to take her old wrinkly ass back to Shady Oaks Retirement Village and find a hobby.
