Peckerwoods

[majormadmax]

I swear, some people are lucky it's not illegal to be stupid.

I'm coming home from work today and see a pick-up truck with two teenagers in it and a Christmas tree in the back. It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out what they're doing, especially when I see them turn down a deserted back road.

I wait a minute and head down the same road and here they come in the other direction sans Christmas tree (I had their license plate number so I know it was them). I do a U-turn and catch up with them at a stoplight. I signal the driver and he rolls down his window. I instruct him to go back and retrieve the tree or I'm calling the SAPD. Oh, and I've got pics of them with the tree and without it, so all I need to do is find the tree and I've got all the evidence I need of illegal dumping.

I wait a few minutes in a nearby gas station then head down the same back road, and lo and behold here they come with the tree back in the bed of the truck!

I am pretty sure they're just going to dump it somewhere else, but what peckerwoods go to illegally dump a Christmas tree in the middle of the day near a crowded intersection?

Honestly, it's sad what our society has degraded in to. That particular road is only about a half mile long but is constantly used as a dumping site by lazy scumbags who can't be bothered to depose of their trash properly. There is a group that cleans it up all the time, as well as a SAPD sign for reporting illegal dumping (207-SAPD, I've got it on my cell phone); but still these jerks continue to toss their trash and let someone else clean it up.

I doubt they realize I did them a favor by telling them to retrieve the tree. I could have easily reported it to the police and with all the evidence I had, it wouldn't take much effort to track down the culprits.

Sorry, I just had to rant. Things like this tend to irritate me.

Cheers! M2

Max -- relax!

This is "Dirty 'Ol SA, after all!

Orejones don't abide by the UCMJ, and SAPD would have cried a river over a dead Christmas tree.

Why did BCSO, SAPD, and other LEO agencies spend thousand of hours nailing hookers and their johns, when prostitution is considered a normal, peaceful and regulated activity in practically every foreign country you ever served?

Wow. Glad you chased down some Christmas tree dumpers. Those people need to be stopped. Dumping Christmas trees are ruining our society. Thankfully that you were there to stop such a vicious act!!!

And this is the reason we have Obama as a president.

Really? I would've never associated the lack of concern over Christmas tree dumpers with the fact we have Obama as a president.

MMM, dumping a christmas tree is much less serious a crime than some traffic laws which i'm sure you've broken once or twice before...

Peckerwood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peckerwood (or simply wood) is a slur used through the mid 20th century by southern African Americans and upper class whites to describe poor rural whites. It is roughly synonymous with "cracker," "redneck" and "White trash," more prevalent in the southeast, although the last implies a degree of moral turpitude.
Blacks saw blackbirds as a symbol of themselves, and the redheaded woodpecker as a representation of working class whites. They considered them loud and troublesome like the bird, and sometimes with red hair like the woodpecker's head plumes. This word is still widely used by southern blacks to refer to southern whites.[SUP][citation needed][/SUP]

Ignorance is contagious.

And this is why we have people serving prison sentences for drug-related charges while sexual predators roam free.

Fair enough. It's a class B misdemeanor. Whoopdeedoo. Doesn't mean you haven't committed a more serious crime. You've still got way too much time on your hands, and too much wood up your ass.

Is there a law against being a prick?
