Do What I Say, Not What I Do


The progressive hipsters who attended the recent music festival in Pemberton, BC left the place in quite a state of mess. It would be fascinating to do a scientific study of the correlation of those who leave garbage at such large event vs. their voting patterns. Any theories what such numbers might show?
The hypocrisy of those who claim to be environmentally responsible but actually aren’t in their own lives is reminiscent of the Toronto Star’s Catherine Porter.

  1. Just as stupid as those jerks who celebrate Earthday and leave amoutian of trash

  2. Take a look at what the illegal immigrants coming through Greece leave behind. The same pile of crap, moving on like a field of locusts.

  3. In Washington DC protests it is no contest:
    Park police report virtually zero litter when the protestors are right wing or Libertarian/Conservative It is always a virtual pigsty when the Marxists/Left/Democrats show up.
    No mystery here. People on the right are self reliant and look after themselves. The left’s answer is that the government (someone else)) will pick up after them.
    I went to the ‘artist’ community of Taos, NM a few years ago and it looks like Browning on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation here in Montana where there is 70% unemployment the attitude is the government pays for everything and there is garbage everywhere all year long. It is disgusting.
    Haven’t gone in their homes to look for Kate’s big TV’s as I am sure the insides of the homes are even filthier.

  4. Oh the irony!
    Catherine Porter was concerned about being an exemplary parent.
    She’s now immortalized on film as a liar for all to see, including her daughter.

  5. Not just DC…but also Ottawa, and Queens Park , Toronto…..
    The word is DC Park Police and staff get time off for TEA Party rallies but extra shifts for the lefty assemblies.
    Probably Ottawa and Toronto put on extra cops to harass conservatives but haul out their riot gear for lefties.
    It has became a tradition for TEA party types to have garbage bags as part of their kit…..clever….despite this the lefties refuse to clean up the act and their crap.
    As far as that ‘music festival in Pemberton, BC’….WOW JUST WOW…..

  6. It looks just like any environmentalist gathering or one of Obonzo’s Immaculations
    in Washington D.C.

  7. That is disgusting.
    I was taught early on that when you go into the bush, you bring everything back out that can’t be burnt. This was way before the environmental movement started revering the planet.

  8. Exactly, we used to pack our garbage out of the bush Wally, was just part of the deal…

  9. well, back in the DAY, they left no garbage, the hippies were the garbage!:-)))
    captcha: 3030, would be a great problem solver

  10. “Everybody wants to save the world but nobody wants to help mom with the dishes.”
    – P.J. O’Rourke

  11. Behold the foot soldier zombie corps of the great Proglodyte leap backward.
    On a more personal note it pains me to see a beautiful little western CPR town like Pemberton fall to yuppie developers and zombie hordes – seems the Whistler disease has moved north – Eco pilgrims all so intent to get a chunk of nature they destroy it un the process – the zombie Gaia corps has the reverse Midas touch – everything they touch turns to Sxxt

  12. Hey,
    You get free stuff from the government, why should you pick up after yourself. Just leave it.
    In the next few days you get more free stuff, or you better get more free stuff or you may protest the rotten capitalists got everything and you want it.
    Are things going down hill, you think?

  13. Yep, came here to say that. Last TEA Party rally I attended there were still people walking the park with trash bags an hour after the event ended.

  14. Now why wasn’t that on The National? I blame Harper?
    (Sorry guys–left my reading glasses in the truck.)

  15. Or, ” Unless everyone else picks up their trash, first, I am not picking up mine.”

  16. Just like people moan that oil and mining companies should be fully taxed for environmental consequences, ticket prices for outdoor concerts should be raised to include the anticipated price of cleanup

  17. Great example for our kids. Robert. Don’t they have any laws out there against that kind of trash. Who was the organizer? They had no responsibility? IE, nobody leaves until you carry your crap with you? Cripes. I’ve seen kids parties with less then that. And who would stay in that filth to start with?

  18. They were going to occupy Wall Street. Until they found out that is wasn’t in BC! So they had a party.

  19. RE: Catherine Porter is correct about Ezra being a bully…..
    Depending on yer definition of bully….
    Bully: anyone who wins an argument or debate with a LEFTY.

  20. “It is always a virtual pigsty when the Marxists/Left/Democrats show up.”
    And that includes showing up in countries.

  21. I’ve attended a few Tea Party rallies and brought garbage bags along, as did others. Our aim was to leave the place cleaner than we found it, and we always did. That was partially from a sense of responsibility and partially from a desire to visibly stand in contrast to progressive behavior.

  22. Filthy slugs, could be some of the same lot who have the time to attend protest rallies on the environment.

  23. BC? is this not the same place that rioted, looted & burned their city after they lost a hockey game. Not one conviction!, Just misunderstood munchkins.
    You need to have your own Armed security to visit San Francisco, and garbage sterilization services in BC.. West Coast must be getting ready for the BIG one

  24. Say, perhaps they were all members of a feminist collective and have yet to come up with a consensus on who will clean up the mess?

  25. Damn bunch of litter bugs they should be made to clean up this mess they made. We have our County Fair coming up next month and theres never ever a big mess like this

  26. They are obviously leftists.
    They left an even worse mess after Obama’s inauguration.
    And Obama is the one who got elected in part because he was going to save the planet instead of pollute it like those evil Republicans ( yeah right )
    People who are moved to tears by a president who promises to save the planet dump their trash on the ground, that is insane.
    The left is made up mostly of people with mental problems. How else can one explain this?

  27. The only issue these kids are even aware of is legalizing pot and could get Justin Trudeau in.
    This whole concert / rave scene is just another excuse to get “F”d up.
    These people don’t vote otherwise.

  28. Millennials! The spawn of the baby-boomers. The ones who say “there you go” when serving customers in a business instead of “thank you”, never ever a “thank you”, no that would be prostituting their precious snowflake souls. Yep, that’s them. They truly are the worst.

  29. The irony of course is that these hippie ratbags (not forgetting the Manson Family) coined the term “pigs” to refer to everyone not in the leftist camp.

  30. “The left is made up mostly of people with mental problems. How else can one explain this?”
    I think the director of the FBI used those words to describe ISIS recruits…or OBAMA followers… YES

  31. Point of interest here:
    My son was at this thing and he tells me that they charged nearly $100 of extra fees on top of the face value of the tickets, including a $30 environmental impact fee.
