I’m just going to get a Go Pro and send that shite in to the cops in the future.




They won't do a damn thing. A few years back, someone threw something out of their window on the interstate in the middle of BR and it shattered the back right window of my wife's car, the window where we had the baby's car seat. Thankfully, my wife already dropped him off at daycare. My wife took a picture of the car, the license plate and called the state troopers (because it was interstate, their jursidiction). Gave them all the information, and NOTHING HAPPENED.

Unless you are speeding, or happen to commit a crime in front of the police, they aren't going to do shite.

That's a bit extreme


Why? Follow the rules. Require driver's license and cross-reference to the State's database. Only if the person is registered as being a non-felon on the state's database are you able to rent/hire. Like Gun laws in a way, you can't sell to a prohibited person.

So if you make it harder for a felon to provide for themselves in a legal manner what are they going to do? Use the money that they dont have to relocate to another state? You're pretty much keeping them stuck in a cycle of crime/poverty. Yeah they made some bad choices but if they've paid society for that choice why make it that much more difficult for them to be productive citizens? Preventing them from working will just make more leeches.

That I'm sure they would just ball up and throw in the street out of spite! Probably why they discontinued it. People that uncivilized don't take kindly to being told what do do.

Baton Rougians love emptying the trash in their cars into parking lots before driving off. I can't count how many times I've seen someone take a bunch of fast food bags, sit outside their door then just drive off, leaving it in the parking lot. It's trashy as frick and they couldn't give one shite.

That entire bag of trash would have been strewn all over their yard in the middle of the night. Why didn’t you do that?

Two types of felons. Accidental and shite bag. Accidental= oops DUI, drunk fight, caught wife cheating beating type that is usually a one off, and the other is just a recidivist. They will do whatever as long as it's easy short term money. Sell weed, legalize weed, oh snap, then I'll sell Heroin. It's not weed that made them a criminal, it's the easy money without fear of repercussions that made the criminal.

The one offs would be okay I guess, but im not willing to allow them to stay as it muddies the water between meh and bad. Those people will leave without issue.

Now recidivists will not stop committing crime for the most part 70-80%. But these people dont commit crime every single waking hour, it's like ovulation, they go on criminal jaunts when they need/want something, the rest of the time they are pretty much like everyone else in their neighborhood.

So to make it difficult to live in those neighborhoods, forcing them to move to an area where they aren't instantly sucked back into the stimuli(people/influences) that "created" the criminal, you give them a better shot at being a half decent person.

TLDR Assertion: A criminal stands a better chance of recovery far removed from the area that made them a criminal.

Resources will be there to aid migration.

They may have been related to the Louisiana folks who threw two dirty diapers into Mobile Bay last summer on the way to the beach.

I threw my sons pop tart out the window in to a bayou this morning and some fat arse lady started flashing her lights and riding my arse. She’s lucky I didn’t have another pop tart on me

WHY do people insist on doing this shite instead of just throwing it in the garbage when they stop? It makes this state look so nasty, and yes, people traveling through this state see that and shake their heads.. I don’t get this attitude. Is mommy coming to pick up after them or are they just that much garbage that they actually don’t really know any better or care?



1. they're either ignorant and think somebody else will pick it up, like mexicans.

2. they hate the world and don't really give a shite because their lives are so miserable; the world looks like shite to them anyways, so what's another styrofoam cup?

You’re gonna go tell? Just move on with your day. Be glad you were taught to not be a littering little piece of trash like this person and keep it moving.

I don’t know old you are so forgive me if I’m wrong here. But I’m gonna guess late Gen X or Boomers. Y’all wonder why my millennials are such pussys. It’s because their parents taught them things like this: When they encounter loser-like, poor person-type behavior out in the wild, the thing to do is get all worked up about it and then come up with a plan to go snitch on them. Ugh it makes me cringe.
