grinreaper Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 http://freebeacon.com/issues/sanitation-crews-search-dead-bodies-amid-piles-pipeline-protester-trash/ Authorities in North Dakota are working to prevent an environmental catastrophe caused by the massive amounts of trash left behind by anti-oil pipeline protesters, local media report. State and tribal sanitation crews are rushing to remove piles of waste and debris left over from the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline before weather warms and the mountains of trash turn toxic. According to cleaning crews, they're worried they might even find dead bodies among the piles of refuse that now pollute areas where anti-pipeline protesters camped out for months. "It's estimated it will take 250 trucks filled with litter to clear the camp," according to a local NBC affiliate. Once the spring thaw comes, the area could be at risk of major environmental damage. "In a month, all this trash could become toxic." "We are looking for, as I said, anything illegal, anything that might be used to, I guess, harm our officers during a protest," says Jay Gruebele, Morton County Sheriff's Office Captain. Authorities are also searching through the piles for evidence they hope they don't find. "As bad as it sounds, we're looking for people that may have died and could be wrapped up in a canvas or a tarp or tent," says Gruebele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You took his accounting of conservatives leaving less garbage at "protest" sites than liberals and compared it to the amount of welfare dispensed in twenty states. You embarrassed yourself........and sadly , you can't even see it. ..................................................................................................................

Seems like they love my tax dollars taking care of their sh*t. That can be just as easily characterized as a list of states with the lowest state & local tax burden that receive more of their federally taxed dollars back into their communities. In other words, if Washington takes away X amount of your residents' money, you're doing good to get a large share of that back, especially if you're keeping your local taxes under control. I'd wager that your New Yorks and Californias have a slightly higher state and local tax burden on their residents than do places like Mississippi, Idaho, and North Dakota.

No not easily characterized that's exactly what it is. Now breakdown in what form those tax dollars come back in would be more appropriate. California puts in more than it gets back because we have a massive amount of very wealthy people here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinreaper Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2046586/Occupy-Wall-Street-Shocking-photos-protester-defecating-POLICE-CAR.html These are the shocking scenes that have led some people to accuse the Occupy Wall Street protesters living rough in New York's financial district of creating unsanitary and filthy conditions. Exclusive pictures obtained by Mail Online show one demonstrator relieving himself on a police car. Elsewhere we found piles of stinking refuse clogging Zuccotti Park, despite the best efforts of many of the protesters to keep the area clean. The shocking images demonstrate the extent to which conditions have deteriorated as demonstrations in downtown Manhattan enter their fourth week. Further pictures seen by Mail Online have been censored, as we deemed them too graphic to show.

Economics isn't my strong suit, but it sure looked to me like it was less an indictment of those states than he was making it out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
