TV is rampant with "pickers." They go around on garbage nights to see what us "rich" folks call trash. I have seen them anytime after 9 pm cruising our street and shopping our trash. The other night they shopped my neighbors garbage, took what they liked, and then left other less desirable items they had gotten elsewhere on the driveway. Tore open bags and just left them as well. Usually the pickers are in rusted pick ups but these folks were in a new Buick. They saw me watching them but just didn't give a hoot and continued doing their thing. Don't know if it is against the law to go though other's trash once it is outside. Have to watch more CSI to be in the know!!!
