Anacortes, in Skagit County, is the center of Washington state oil refining. Protesters were camped on the railroad tracks to keep oil trains from reaching the refineries. 52 were arrested for trespassing.

When leaving, the rest of the thoughtful protesters eschewed wasteful gas-powered transportation, and flew off on solar-powered unicorns, leaving their trash, because hey...unicorns can only carry so much garbage.

Those protestors must be pretty rich and privileged if they can afford to leave all that good stuff behind.

The county should clean up the mess and send a bill to whomever financed the protest. Ragheads. Envirofags. Whomever.

"Anacortes Police Department spokesman Lou D'Amelio confirmed that the trash was from the protests, but said it was unclear if it was left intentionally or on accident."

In other words no charges will be filed.

It’s OK to leave trash on the evil corporate railroad tracks.

Its like my new neighbor who is worried about “climate change”.

Her yard is nothing but a sh**house of junk and garbage all over the place and a lawn about a foot high now.

One has to pause and take note when the lefties fail to get sympathy from the equally leftist KIRO TV spokesmoron.

This seems to happen most of the time with these so-called environmentalists. Not uncommon at all.

What were the pipes supposed to be used for? Derailing the trains? If so, lock them up and never let them out. Charge them with attempted murder.

Although we don't know yet if this act was intentional, I'm reminded of news stories like these:
