I kinda feel bad for the couple. Having them receive a fine is punishment enough. What they did was wrong, but having your face shown to the whole city is over kill IMO. I guess I just feel bad because they are elderly. If it was 2 jackass teenagers I'd probably be happy they were emberassed.

Hope that $750 fine is for each of them, not total.

Screw them. I don't feel sorry for willfully lazy people. It serves them right to have their faces plastered across the city. They dumped their garbage in a city park of all places.

It would be great if it was $750 a bag.

They're jackasses, why does it matter what their age is?
Teens are dumb because they are young, this old couple should know better.

I used an open dumpster last week when I was moving and my condo's compactor couldnt' handle some of the stuff I needed to throw out.
I dumped my stuff at 3am, in the sideways sleet.
If they don't want me using it, don't leave it out in the open, easily accessible, and unlocked.

Try waiting until morning to use the dump like the other 99% of us do.

I've used an open dumpster, but when I did it I was being a jerk, and when you did it you were being a jerk. Don't try to justify it by saying it's the owners fault.

Just Because I usually have more sympathy for the elderly. I never said they didn't know any better just that I feel bad that their faces are being publicized. Doesn't mean I think they shouldn't be punished, but a $750 dollar fine is a pretty good deterent.
On the other hand maybe having their faces publicized can deter other people from wanting to illegally dump if they think that maybe their faces can end up on the news.

Had to move in the morning. And I am about 30 minutes away from any dump and 30 seconds from a dumpster.
Not saying it isn't "wrong" but I did it and I'll do it again. An open dumpster that a business leaves open and unlocked- maybe it isn't nice of me to drop 3 bags of garbage in there, but at the end of the day they probably didn't even notice.
However, leaving stuff in NGP... specifically where it is not supposed to be, that is bad and I hope they get fined.

People like this are garbage themselves. Imagine if everyone pulled this crap what it would look like. Obviously they aren't doing as much harm as a pedo, but to me they're equally garbage people. Same as the losers who sit at the intersection waiting for the light to change flicking they're butts out the window.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!

If they can't afford the fees, they can ask their neighbours for permission to leave an extra bag or two in front of their homes.
No excuses.
