Seattle will suddenly see a higher volume of trash dumped in streets and on empty lots.

Yet another damned good reason not to live in a big city.

Hahahahahahaha! “balut topping”...I used to live in the PI when I was a kid, so that would be gagu-inducing indeed!

What color tag do you get if they find the body of the garbage police in a trash can?

People should put firecrackers that detonate if you open the trash can. I’m sure homeowners and trash people could find a way to do this without harming the trash men.

Or just wait to collect trash until the smoke has cleared.

Go around the neighborhood, putting red tags on ALL the bags. That way you won’t stand out anymore.

The leftist nitwits suppose everybody has a garden. How many apartment or condo dwellers in Seattle even have gardens? I had a house without a garden. I don’t garden. How about spoiled food and no garden? These people are lunatics.

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
The bright red tag, posted on a garbage bin, tells everyone who sees it that you've violated a new city law that makes it illegal to put food into trash cans.

Put it down the drain with a Waste King 1hp disposal. It won’t come back to haunt you.

Great point. Imagine a Jew moving from America to Hitler’s Germany.

Here, they dump it all together, even after the drones have sorted it at home. Then they separate it industrial style. Recycling is big money and the haulers don’t want to waste anything.

Why do people keep voting for control freaks like this?
I guess they want to be controlled.

We used to have a dump right on the edge of the city. The city leaders with their infinite wisdom decided to move it about 20-30 miles out of town. The illegal aliens won’t drive that far to dump their old couches, tires, and bags of trash so now there is garbage along the roads.
