Occupy Charlotte Used Storm Drain As Toilet, Contaminated Water
Isn’t one of Obama’s talking points about Republicans that they want dirty water?
No one ever had to call a HAZ-MAT crew after a Tea Party.
You could easily make a case that the unifying aspect of the #Occupy people is that none of them were potty trained. I mean really, how many more stories like this do we have to read?
#Occupy Charlotte was using a storm drain as a toilet. A storm drain that led to a local water supply. HAZ-MAT crews had to be called in to deal with the situation…
CHARLOTTE, N.C.– A haz-mat crew with the Charlotte Fire Department was called to 600 East Trade Street, the site of the Occupy Charlotte movement, on Tuesday morning.
City workers who had been cleaning the area noticed toilet paper on top of a storm water grate that drains into a nearby creek. Charlotte-Mecklenburg police and city officials believe some protesters have been using the drain as a toilet.
“We’re looking at the environmental impact on the stream down there with the wildlife, and things like that,” said Deputy Fire Chief Jeff Dulin.
“Plus the water goes downstream for other people to drink further down. But again, we’re just trying to cover all our bases, and make sure that if there is any type of environment impact, that we’re able to identify that and then correct that and make sure there is no further environmental impact downstream,” he added.
Remember this the next time someone on the left tells you they care about the environment.
Here’s the video report from WCNC in Charlotte.
