Are you one of those tos**rs that could not be botherd to walk a few meters to a rubbish bin in the street, but would sooner just drop your waist on the ground?

No.......... I have been taking my rubbish home in my handbag and pocket s as long as I can remember, training my children to do the same, as they train their children.
I am one of the frustrated majority .... that watch this happen and would dearly love to have the confidence and karate expertise to sort out the creatures that do !
I would volunteer to shoot them on site, if I could !

I never litter, if I drop something by accident I'll pick it up and if there aren't any bins I'll take it home. In fact, I often enough pick up litter left by others, of course I can't do so all the time everywhere but in my own street I'll pick up even if it's not right in front of my door, and sometimes elsewhere like when I've rested some place on a hike & there's one or two pieces of old litter, I'll just grab them too when cleaning up my own.

No, Phil, I'm not, honest! I agree with you - there's no excuse for dropping litter. Unfortunately we don't have any civic pride these days. Such a shame. Of course, if one repremands a child for dropping litter one calls down the rath of the parent on one. I would love to see litter louts & everybody who spoils surroundings for other people being made to clean up in a very public way. Maybe chain gans in pink overalls, like in the U.S.?

No, I'm not. if I can't see or find a bin the litter goes in my pocket or bag until I either locate a bin or go home.
I can't stand people dropping litter.

I don't litter, I'll take the extra few steps and throw it in the trash bin, what really bothers me now is when I see people smoking and flicking their cigarette butts on the ground that's gross.

I try my best not to drop any rubbish , in fact , I'd rather carry it home with me and bin it there . Can't stand the idiots who just don't care and throw their stuff everywhere , they should be fined heavily

Honestly, I put trash in the trash can when driving by, but sometimes the trash flies out because of the wind or movement. And I won't get out of the car to pick it up.
If it's in front of my home as people litter, I pick it up immediately.

I do not litter. It is rude and tacky. When I smoked I never even left my butts on the ground. Not even at events. I have a pocket ash tray that I emptied periodically.

god no!! i hate that. i taught my kids not to litter and my oldest son is notorious for it. i yell at him all the time. he just tosses stuff out the car window. it drives me nuts! do you know how much debris would be off the streets if everyone took a few seconds and threw their trash in a can? or put it in their pocket til later? we'd fill a landfill.
