In reply to the discussion: (Alaska) Senate votes to ease cruise ship wastewater rules [View all]Swede Atlanta
(3,596 posts)26. Pump the crap into the homes, not offices, of those that voted for this.....
They could care less about their office staff. They are expendable "collateral" damage.
But they might not like it when their pot roast had a few turds floating around in it or the toxic level in their coffee was off the charts.
These guys are disgusting. The state of Alaska projects itself as the last frontier, "pristine, unmolested", etc. Well we know it is now just a sewer.
I won't be going there anytime soon.
Hope their tourist dollars dry up and they have to start paying taxes again.

Very tiny amounts of copper are known to mess with Salmon's navigation system.
