The latest battle in the war on illegal immigration isn't over the smuggling of undocumented workers, it's over the trash they leave behind.
Government officials and border activists say the garbage dumped in the desert by illegal immigrants and their smugglers is staggering.
And the cleanup is costing taxpayers millions.

I was shot at once, many years ago, on public land while I was deer hunting by, I am assuming, pot growers. The police found a large pot farm after I reported the incident to the cops. Lucky I am still here to tell about it. The perps, who were later caught, were illegal aliens, long before the present shake up about illegals began(20 years ago). Time to stop this crap. Time to throw all lefties out of office, time to restore Government by, for and of the people.
Since we are listing other areas: They completely trash San Gabriel Canyon in Southern California every weekend. There are native trout to catch in the middle fork if you don’t mind floating spray paint cans from writing graffiti all over the rocks. Not to mention dirty diapers, paper plates, disgarded food, broken beer bottles, dumped charcoal, broken lawn chairs, clothes, and of course, excrement and toilet paper. But then again, maybe I have to give them the benifit of the doubt, just maybe they like to fish too....
Over 500 tons are collected each year. There are probably 3-5 times that amount that accumulates uncollected because of its remoteness.
“Weird, they dont seem to want to pick up their trash in my neighborhood parks either. Must be a cultural difference we all need to just understand.”
I don’t think it’s a Hispanic culture thing. I think this has to do with people who are not used to the concept of sanitation (ie: If you’re used to living in squalor, then why bother picking up trash?)
Couldn’t they at least dig a giant hole and cover that up or something?
border states should load up those mexican trucks & deposit these tons in the FRONT YARDS of our *scamnasty* reps....
CA....Pelosi & mayor 'villa'....etc.
AZ....Juan McShame & Napolitano...etc.
NM....Richardson....etc.
TX....gov' goodhair & the *ranch* in Crawford, TX....etc.
We should airlift all the trash and drop it on Mexico. Think anyone would notice?
