It is encouraging to see the majority viewing this woman's action as irresponsible. Clearly the manner in which her arm moved demonstrated she intended to toss it. We were going in opposite directions and she was moving quickly. I had an urge to turn around but well the thought of chasing down an apple thrower was a bit too much. If we were both walking that is another matter than ....well you know

In this same vein it is concerning that some made light of this incident. Perhaps they view it as an overreaction. If people do not speak up as time passes and people move in and out the landscape will change for the worse unless government enforces the rules.

The act this woman created may seem minor to some but the thinking behind that act is disturbing and very disrespectable.

I lived in a city where they mixed the prices of homes because of their giant integration plan. Some homes expensive like ours and a few inserted at half the price. We found a neighbor two doors down who purchased his home at half the price was burying his garbage in his back yard and was drawing nasty critters.

We have people from all over the country and from foreign countries so it is a very unique and wonderful mix. It will take strong government to enforce the rules we all agreed to. It will take residents respect for themselves and for their neighbors to ensure government does its job thoroughly.

Trash is trash. I don't know too many animals here that would eat a banana peel so I guess we would have to look at it for about 14 days til it breaks down.
It's just as easy to take it home and throw it away. If someone wants to fertilize, then they can put it in their own yard.

In fact, it takes two years for a banana peel to disintegrate.

Not only that, but anything rotting along a street or roadside attracts vermin, regardless of whether they eat the litter or not.

All it takes for this beautiful, clean place to start looking "third world" with rats populating more, is for a few more dozen residents to throw their "biodegradable" waste along the street, sidewalk or roadways while claiming to be more righteous friends of the environment.

It's not only lazy, but ignorant behavior.

I wish I knew her name because I would list it here and let people know that she apparently thinks so little of her fellow residents that upon finishing her apple she tossed the apple cord in the road.

How is she going to charge her Apple without the cord?
