I happened to be walking my dog down there when all of this happened. The guy who jumped was a local homeless guy that I had seen around a few times , Prior to jumping he was walking up and down the street just screeming listen to me, one guy turned around and ask him what he wanted and he just kept saying listen to me. I was carrying a huge tarp, which he later tried usign as a raft in the water before swimming under the pier making it difficult for the police to get to him. The cops tried convincing him not to jump by going into the bars and asking for a beer or two for the guy , when they finally got one he just jumped.

Or even better – my former condo complex had a pool. Since I paid monthly maintenance, which included pool filtering and chemicals, did that mean I could have peed in the pool? I mean, the filter, which I pay for, would have cleaned it.

Dont even front. You Know You Peed In That Pool!!! Everyone does it!!!

WTF is a shooter? Are you a 54 year old southern woman?

Oh, I get it now. Since you pay for street cleanup in your taxes, you’re entitled to litter on the street. Why bother purchasing garbage cans and bags – I should just throw my trash out in the street. The guy will pick it up in the morning anyway, right?

You’ve opened my eyes to a whole new world of logic and for that I thank you.

(BTW – I’m no environmentalist or anything like that. I just can’t stand the lack of courtesy in our society and the feeling of entitlement people have to do whatever is most convenient for them at that point in time.)

re # 13> from his response I gather he was not even paying attention and had no desire to take action even if I was to use the “world as my ash tray”, so I did. The next day, I walked past my “footprint” from the night before and one of hoboken’s strongest was sweeping the street, which I also pay for.

Outside a bar one night, a beat officer is talking with a bouncer. There are no butt or trash cans around, so as I walk to the curb (thinking he will ticket me for littering) I ask him if I can throw my cig on the ground so the street sweeper can get it the next morning. His response, “do I look like that big of do***e bag to you?”. What do you think he would have said had I not asked? Either way I was wrong…enjoy your pension.

His response could have been sugar-coated a little, but I don’t disgree with him. Why do you feel entitled to toss your cigarette butt on the ground? I guess you’re like the rest of the smokers who just thinks the world is their ashtray?
