    can we add those who walk dogs and fail to pick up the little dog logs to this list of crimes against civilization??

    i HATE those people....pick it up and throw it out at the next trash can... :twisted:

    :lol::lol::lol:DUDE ! my front yard is a doggie walk stop and shit...and they walk away with it (poop) so finally I tell them to throw it in the trash can on the side of my house, I'm glad they do pick up after their dogs
    but sometimes I can't help laughing at them as they stare at their dog while they squat to do their business :lol: I'm laughing my azz off just thinking about it :lol:

    I got 2 tickets in less than 3 years for that....cost me $1600 the second time and that cured me I havn't smoked in my car now for about 4-5 years now ...and my truck don't smell like an ashtray, funny how that works oh and if there is no ashtray or trashcan around I will put the spent cig back in the pack, I'll bet if all these cig tossers got nailed like I did they too would change their habbit :D and BTW when you go to court it's a littering ticket and I saw a gal get fined for throwing a gum wrapper out her window..back then the first offense was $350 ...she was pissed screaming it was just a gum wrapper !!! and I had to close my eyes and cover my mouth to keep from laughing.

    I find it funny that smokers always crack their window when they are driving... but non-smokers are supposed to deal with the smoke in an enclosed room... They should keep their damn windows up if it doesn't bother them. ;)

    And I agree on the tossing of butts out of the window, keep your trash in your car and dispose of it properly.

    I can't remember the last time I saw somebody throw a cigarette out the window. Around here it's a littering ticket. I don't know what it costs now, because the last time I even heard of somebody getting in trouble for it was 10 years ago, and he had to pay $250 for it. But I see signs now that say the fine can be as high as $2000. And if there are dry conditions and wild fire danger you can get in more trouble.

    I can't even remember the last time I saw somebody litter. I know it's become a big joke about our state and how we all carry guns or whatever, but "Don't Mess With Texas" is actually a very successful anti-littering campaign that was started back in the 80's that they claim has reduced littering by 72%. If people in your town are throwing around cigarettes like confetti then your state/country/whatever should start cracking down and letting people know that it would be much cheaper for them to dispose of their trash properly. That'll have them too scared to even ash out their window, much less toss it out.

    Smokers who throw/drop cigarettes out their car window "should be murdered"

    I don't know why I get riled about this topic but it is one thing I wish the cops would look for more...I dole out my street justice when I see it....which usually involves me being mad in my car, but at least I am sending them angry thoughts

    This is ONE of the things that aggravate me so much, I can't stand to see it especially here in South Florida. We haven't had much rain down in quite some time and when I see people throwing cigs out their car windows just erks me when it can easilly start a fire.

    Cops will pull people over for discarding trash and I certainly hope they will do so for cigarettes because other than trashing the highways they can lead to someone being killed. Don't cars still are made with cigarette holders/ashtrays?

    I admit I smoke (not very much, but I do). Yes, it is a gross habit, but it is what it is. I never throw any cigarette butts out of my car window, and I frown on those who do because, like other people have said numerous times, it is littering. It makes the environment nasty, and I once saw a squirrel trying to eat one and that sealed it for me.

    It also helps them burn down our forests.
    WHICH is now a 1 million dollar fine in British Columbia, no joke.

    To add to the thread, I dislike it when some smokers do this. I think it's plain rude. Use a jar with some sand and a lid if you need to smoke in your car. My husband did when he smoked, and when the jar was full, he would throw it out. That's a lot more manageable to clean out of your car.

    On a funny note, I have a close friend who did this when he used to smoke. Until he realized that because he had a hatchback, the butts were actually following aerodynamics and landing in his trunk space via the opened rear window. The burn marks and ashes were insane!! Now that's instant karma, baby!! :lol::lol::lol:

    Also, every dog owner should Poop and Scoop, regardless the size of the dog. It's still poop, no matter the size of it.

    Also, I am not a smoker. Just second hand when my husband smoked...we have both been smoke-free for 8 years now. :mrgreen:

    I hope he didn't throw the full jar out the window!
    :)

    :lol::lol::lol: Definitely not! He also hated the cig butts out the window and when people dump the full ashtray out in parking areas. Although, one guy who did that in our area was busted...because it led the cops right to him...for murder. Serious.
