Default Eco-Facist police on the way?

Just wait for these green-jackboots to kick your dorr down for this:

I wonder how long it will take for this idea to spread? The next bet will be; how long will it take for the UK to adopt this? :rotfl:

I'm glad the SF police have nothing better to do, other than inforce trash laws.

I can see it now. The green shirts kick in Steed's door, (after the tear gas) and write Steed a 3000 Pound ticket for not seperating his trash.

Poor Steed, everybody picks on him.

Best way to influence behaviour, put a price on it. Think of it as a tax on waste.

If you don't like it, dispose of the rubbish your self.

True story here! I was in a wreck in SF about 3 years back. The van flipped on its side and caufgt fire. I nor the other driver was injured luckily. Three SF cops drove by on motorcylces and just asked if anyone was injured and then drove off. No report, no nothing... So I call 911 and the operator states that the police no longer take accident reports. The bums did not even offer to call a tow truck. Nor did they help to guide traffic around the wreck. I wrote a letter to the office of Gavin Newesome. Never got a reply. he was too busy I guess figuring out ways to screw up the city of SF even more.

That's crazy! Good thing you didn't mix your trash or BBQ on a clean air red alert day, then you'd be screwed.

No doubt! It is sickening that these crazy bastards make these kind of decisions, when they need to clean up the human waste the street bums produce. The streets of San Fransicko are a hazmat area.

Best line of the entire thread!

And I HIGHLY doubt they will go so far as to inspect each individual can and write tickets for small cases. It is likely more for the jackasses who cant take the few mins to get their garbage sorted...

It is not just about the environment.. The programs are helping the economy greatly and helping local governments reduce the problem of dealing with the massive amounts of garbage..

We do not need the drama... Take care of your trash and just move on...
