So sad.  People no longer have any respect for this country nor its fellow neighbors. 

Lake Tahoe is transformed into a 'land fill' as inconsiderate July 4th revelers leave behind trash

Lake Tahoe has been transformed into a 'land fill' after July 4th revelers left behind a staggering 8,500 pounds in trash at the massive freshwater lake.

Independence Day partygoers flocked to the water in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, straddling the border of California and Nevada on

Cigarette butts, plastic food wrappers, beach toys and barbecues were all plucked from six popular beach sites and nearby parking lots around the Tahoe Basin on Wednesday during the annual July 5th 'Keep Tahoe Red, White & Blue' Beach Cleanup.

During the volunteer cleanup, which has been running since 2014, over 400 people raked up the mountains of trash which was 'tragically an all-time high'.

A video was shared to social media of Wednesday's cleanup - described as 'quite a hangover' - showing the giant piles of garbage scattered around discarded beach chairs and tents. ..........

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
Well if they know who had the campsites they should charge and fine the bastards to maximum and prohibit them from ever entering the national park again, and if it was north shore than Nevada should charge and fine them. Tahoe is one of my favorite places and it was bad enough decades ago with low class people trashing facilities but this is beyond disgusting.

IIRC, they don't even allow power boats on Tahoe.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Maybe there were some "Water Protectors" camped out there...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

 8888crybaby One of the significant dicta among trail running events is to leave the trails as clean as before or cleaner. That is disgusting! Personally, when I work aid station I help keep the immediate area clean and walk 30 or 40 yards to either side of the station along the trail to pick up any incidental trash that might have been along the trail before we came.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
