Thread: Pigs and Idiots Hall of Shame!

Parking Lot No No!
6-24-2012 If your are going to do this, don’t lock your vehicle so you don’t have the added expense of replacing windows and or dock locks.

I noticed this in the car next to me as I as I got in mine. Definitely falls in the IDIOT Category!

You’re not from here are you? We were raised not to steal.

And I would appreciate it if you would stop talking about the good people who go to the pier on this forum. It’s a bad reflection on you not them. Don’t mean to cause trouble, but it’s getting old.

Why don’t all the physically fit fisherman show up in the middle of the night once in a while armed with water hoses & nozzles and just start washing away the mess along with the pigs that made the mess.
Also that would be a good time for the pier staff to break out the power washer and do the same!

The mess the night pigs make is more than the staff can handle, IMHO

[size=12pt]Ya know what split (and anybody else that will listen) ...I feel this business of what Fin has AGAIN brought to lite has gone on long enough and its time a line was drawn in the sand and that is EXACTLY what Fin is doing. He knows without me having to write it down here that I have his back on issues like this and there ain't no doubt in my mind he's got mine, along with a lot of other peolpe. I have been fishing the GSP (both old and new) for 40 + years. So...THAT MENTALITY IS EXACTLT WHY WE HAVE A PROBLEM!! IF ANYONE WHO FISHES THE GSP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO PICK UP A MESS THEY MADE AND THEN LEFT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO CLEAN UP, THEN MAYBE THEY SHOULD BE FISHING SOMEWHERE ELSE. WE ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE DOING THAT. MAYBE THEN THE STAFF COULD KEEP UP WITH IT!!
My 2 cents worth[/size]

Who are you referring to? If you're referring to FinChaser, he's not downing the good ones on the pier...he is pointing out what NOT to do on the pier. And the last picture should be common sense to anyone, local or tourist...valuables should not be left in plain sight in a vehicle. I see at least $500 worth of stuff (probably more, depending on what is in the purse) just waiting on someone to break a window and take it, and be gone in less than 15 seconds...and no one will see or know a thing. Just because someone isn't raised here, doesn't mean that they are going to break into a car to steal an IPad and purse left sitting in plain sight. Likewise, there are plenty that were born and raised around here that would steal from their mother if they could get away with it!!! There are plenty of thieves, locals and tourists, just waiting for the chance to happen upon a car like the one in the picture.

And further, no one is talking about the good people who go to the pier on this forum. This whole thread is about the pigs, slobs, or anyone else who is too lazy/sorry to clean up their mess when they make one.

This thread is in support of proper pier etiquette and common sense tactics.

Sure, some may be casually "offended" if they are responsible for some of the misguided behaviors, but I assure you they'll think twice about making such mistakes on their following visits since it was brought to their attention.

:headbang:

I agree, people local, out of towners, whatever need to try to act like human beings, not animals. Pier, beach wherever. They should put some signs and fine these slobs if they can't pick up after themselves.

JC, I have closed car doors and shut tailgates on vans and suv’s many times when I arrive in the pier lot, and I hope somebody is looking out for me when I have a brain fart.
I’m not worried about what the good folks do, but I do worry about what might be done to them. There are people treating our playground like it is a garbage dump and it needs to stop.
Hopefully some of the guilty parties will see the visual evidence of their careless abuse of a great treasure we have here in Gulf Shores and become offended enough to quit trashing our pier. If enough people want me to take the thread down I will gladly do so.

OH, btw, my toes first hit the sand on west beach while I was still in diapers back in the 1940’s, how ‘bout you?

Sorry that you were offended by the thread.
