Nasty tourists

[bzbadger]

I live near ocean city Maryland and I know the town is a tourist hotspot but I wouldn't do what these ppl do. I'm into a 2 hour quick beach hunt and all I find are these stupid Capri sun juice packs and one jackass had the nerve to bury their complete load of trash not twenty feet from a trashcan and my ATP is telling me something is there. I'm right on the cut so I'm getting chatter so I decide to dig and dog and dig...a foot down its trash dump time. Who does this crap? How would they feel of someone did that in their neighborhood, be some serious crying for sure. The whole area was like this, I called it short, packed up with $3+ in clad and let the trash throw their trash.

Here in Puerto Rico it's the same way, they have closed some beaches already... and part of the National Forest el Yunque has been closed to the public for the very same reason...

Just hit Ocean City last Tuesday and I found many soda and beer cans buried about 6-8" deep in the sand. I should have brought a bag to haul those cans out for recycling and got paid for digging them up. This was my first time hitting a beach.

Reading this thread makes me sick. I love the beach and can't wait to go detect on it. I have a 12 yr old son that lives with his mother in Daytona and she has raised him to be a slob. However he doesn't act this way with me or in my presence. But I see this type of behavior everywhere. Ppl leave trash in there front yards and parents not making the children pick up toys. If we don't teach our children to pick up their toys you know they are not going to pick up trash not at home or the beach. Out of sight out of mind. WH

It is a heartbreak to see all the trash. People are living in that me world. Same people that run stop signs,speed,dont use a blinker those are the just all about me crowd. Why should I pick up my old fishing line I dont need anymore. Let mother nature clean it up. She has an island in the Pacific where she keeps all the discards. Thank God for mother nature.

From the looks of the replies on this thread, i'll stick with my initial assessment. People are pigs. Maybe not you, nor I but...

If only mother nature could pick and choose her targets for revenge specifically, the world would be a much better place.

I take pics of everything I take off the beaches some day we may need to defend our hobby by showing the service that we do.

Alcohol is not legal on San Diego Beaches so all the cans are usually buried as well. Although it's sad to see I have this love hate feeling about it as the finds definitely increase with consumption. The only thing better is cans and condoms ; )

Pigs are everywhere nc and sc beaches get hammered with cans Capri sun pouches. Beer bottles and bottle caps just sad. Walk by trash can on the way in and leave trash buried. Walk back by same trash cans on the way out.
