Bunch of jerks—liberals and park rangers.
A friend of mine owns the Glass Beach on an island in Maine that we spend the summers on. It was old glass bottle that were dumped there in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
A tour outfit from the mainland used to bring summer visitors there for many years in the 1960s and after, and each group of visitors would pick up glass, until there was not much left.
So, when my friend inherited the beach, he took a bunch of bottles—blue, green, other interesting colors—and busted them all over the beach. Within a few years it was worn smooth, and now the kids can pick up beach glass there again.
Typical government environmentalist thinking in this article—not allowed to pick it up, not allowed to make more of it, not allowed to do this, not allowed to do that. . . . And the guys who set the rules are mostly ignorant jerks.
Odds are that it’s liberals who are packing the glass out.
This will blow your mind
$300 for chunks of glass.
Can you imagine one of *us* spending money on that?
I sure can’t.
*If* I wanted some, I’d just toss broken glass into a cheap rock tumbler for a few days.
