ill gotten cardboard
The county started posting a
guard at each dump site to prevent people from taking valuable garbage
and scrap metal.
I was dropping off some trash
the other day when I noticed this stove box sitting on the ground next
to a dumpster.
The guard was distracted
doing something in their little shack which made me think I could take
the cardboard and run if I acted quick enough. I made a clean getaway.
No sirens or admonishing statement from the guard. The box will live on
as a layer
of kill mulch for the
garden.

This is pure evil, and it is the outcome of the comment on Anna's book review that I just made.
We have annual City wide clean up here in the Mid-West. The City puts out those large dumpsters. I and others would love to salvage what others don't need anymore. This is discouraged because everything must be thrown into the dumpster and a Mennonite volunteer comes with his front loader and smashes down the contents. This is outrageous. This from the Community developers who claim to care about people? No....it's evil. They do not allow people to care for other people, or for people to be able to care for themselves......they want people dependent upon the State.
