Garbage burners are the bigger problem

It’s been around since the quest for fire. I don’t have an issue with that; it’s the garbage burners you should nail.

Backyard burning, I say, “back off.”

It’s been around since the quest for fire. I don’t have an issue with that; it’s the garbage burners you should nail. They burn garbage all year round. This causes respiratory problems and pollution.

The solution with backyard burning is to stop choking the fire, there’s less smoke. People that complain got to start asking questions like do you smoke? Do you drive your car with your window down, waiting for the light to turn green? Do you have a fireplace or camp with an open fire? Start issuing fines to the garbage burners, they’re the real killers. Backyard burning, what’s gonna happen, a forest fire?
