Democrats, defenders of the environment!

I bet the inside of the bus smells clean.

Maybe Trump can have the stuff tested for evidence of drug use?

On a serious note, that is pretty crass, and GROSS! I say the state of Georgia should collect all of it, ship it to her New York home in a big plastic baggie COD and then charge her for the whole affair, plus fine her for illegal dumping. I'd at least like to see if she owns up to it publicly in the press and makes amends.

What a... ahem... shitty thing to do.

Had to be an accident, because…well you know…Democrats would never do such a thing.

Ok…maybe in the south…

I need to hear the call from Ms Clinton demanding the grey water be dumped there before I make a leap past careless, clueless field workers.

And there I thought the Dems were big on protecting the environment

fertilizer!

I was on a party bus about 15 years ago, and near the end of the night, the toilet in the back started overflowing. The driver pulled over at a vacant lot near Moscone Center in SF and emptied the tank into a drain. Was pretty rank.

dunno if you were aiming for multiple meanings from this word, but one can see such.......just sayin'

Now there's an interesting introduction of new words into the story line. My guess is that Slick is already familiar with the meaning of "grey (or gray) water" term. For those that may not be, motorhomes and busses like this generally have 3 tanks: fresh water, gray water, and what's commonly referred to as "black" water, which is where the toilet waste goes. Gray water is what comes from places like sinks, laundry, and showers. It generally has some bacteria in it as well as things like food particles, soap, etc, so it's not really something you'd want to drink. It IS illegal to dump it just anywhere, but some folks will dump it in places like their own lawns knowing that it's mostly just water.

That's NOT what happened here, and I personally wouldn't classify anyone that did this as "careless" OR "clueless".

something in me finds this dumping of crap a wee bit more significant:

that said, I am not aware of a motorhome which allows for dumping of the black water, do you? My fishing camper has to be pumped, mechanically, by an external device.

I've had access to and used 3 different large, bus-like, rear engine motorhomes, and one small one built on a Sprinter chassis. Not one of them required any sort of external device. Legal dump stations at campgrounds or rest areas are most often just a vertical pipe down to a holding tank.

In the case at hand, the stuff dumped contained toilet paper and smelled like what it was. There's no question that it was black water, and no question the perpetrators knew exactly what they were doing. Buncha hypocrites, but not in the least bit surprising to me.

and the deeper signifcance, in terms of electing a President would be?

Only that democrats are so good at softening and deflection any time politics is involved. Black becomes gray. Criminal mishandling of classified material, lying to congress under oath, and intentionally circumventing FOIA laws become unwise choices. Women alleging rape and other sexual assault become bimbos not to be trusted. All about getting that power, isn't it.

Herc -- n/m slick, he's just trolling.

What a silly thread.

Threads like this are hilarious.

Someone from the dem side is caught doing something and it's all the democrats' fault. But if someone from the republican side is caught doing something, it's just them that's at fault.

I'm just having questions as to how dumping a bunch of waste from a campaign staff vehicle relates to anything other than a public safety violation of the van operators. Herc, there, seems determined to make it a major tie in to god-knows-what, and frankly, he is laughable doing so.

topics like this, under the guise of a General Election for President always get me wondering what my late parents, or earlier generations would have made of a public so clearly lacking in the intellectual capacity to seek actual substance. Anyone who places ANY significance in this event past a bunch of idiots working at the LOWEST level of a campaign that is spread across 50 states is a moron, to be blunt.

*shrug* As far I see it Herc just pointed out the difference betw. "grey water" (your spin) and "sewage" (what actually got dumped), then he pointed out some deflection... I don't see anyone here tacking the incident beyond mocking in schadenfreude except you.

I guess, given the very real issues facing us all, someone dumping waste from a campaign van is sort of silly. Then again, look who started the thread....I suppose it is a break from the imminent end of life as we know it.

The exact same thing could be said about every delusional Trump supporter.

I think NS already knows that.
