On a slightly related note, I always wanted to get a big, H1 Hummer, put Environmental plates on it, cover the bumpers with Green Peace and Sierra Club stickers, and then show up at an Earth Day rally. The irony would be good for a laugh.
lolz, thats good. had i had the guts, i would have done the same thing to him. who does that so blatently? do they think that stuff is gonna go?not to thread jack too much, but this reminds me of a quick story.
Our neighbors across the street were having a yard sale. Some guy pulls up in his car gets looks around etc. then gets back in his car and before taking off throws some trash paper out of his car. Now he was still sitting in his car for a moment before taking off so I took the opportunity to run over, pick up the trash, and hand it back to him. I said, " Hey bud, noticed you dropped this." All he mumble was some, "Uhh ya. Thanks." as he drove off.
Don't come into my neighborhood and trash it, we have enough of our own neighborhood kids doing that.

Littering just pisses me off and I have found it's a cultural thing. You are taught to (not) litter.
Littering is one of my pet peeves.
Long story short, he got the $45 city ordinance ticket for a mint he got for free from the bar.
I'll add my own somewhat related threadjack. Last year during Circle City Classic, I was working downtown to contain the normal "festivities." My partner and I were standing outside Ike & Jonesy's (or however you spell it). There was a 40-something year old guy standing about 5 feet from us. As I'm standing there he pops a mint out of its wrapper and then throws the wrapper on the ground, right in front of 2 uniformed cops. Did I mention he was looking right at us when he did it? I told him he dropped something and he replied with "so?". I told him nicely that if he didn't pick it up he could be cited for littering. Another "so?" response. Long story short, he got the $45 city ordinance ticket for a mint he got for free from the bar.
Littering is one of my pet peeves. If I'm on-duty and I see you do it, we're going to have a talk if I have the time. If I'm off-duty I'll still say something to you.
Anyone ever have the driver of a car in front of them flip a still lit cigarette out the window and it bounces off the hood of your car? Talk about pissing someone off...

They no doubt had In God We Trust plates. People with those plates do the dumbest things while driving.Anyone ever have the driver of a car in front of them flip a still lit cigarette out the window and it bounces off the hood of your car? Talk about pissing someone off...
Of course, most of these idiots also put their Indiana BMV '10 or '11 sticker somewhere else on the plate other than on top of the previous year sticker.
Lots of dumb people out there...
I think you should get that Environment plate off your red dodge pickup because it's crampin' your litterbug style.
