I do not understand how in this day and age there are are people that just think 'I'll just dump this here on the street "

It's even more amazing that people will toss a lit cigarette butt in the middle of droughts.

Like I almost get why someone is so lazy they don't care if things look or smell bad but casual arson is a hell of a leap.

Honestly and unironically, the punishment for littering needs to be a lot harsher, and strictly enforced.

Leave a coffee cup on the ground? Jail.
Don't pick up your dog's shit? Jail.
Toss a cigarette butt on the sidewalk? Straight to jail, no trial.

i shouldn’t be surprised that the venn diagram is a circle, but for some reason i always am.
