Calico said:The man digging in the trash on the sidewalk, I am still confused why he was let off with a warning, is it illegal to dig in trash? Going into someone's home was crossing the line.
willnotwill said:Nope, he probably could have gotten away with that. Did you watch the video through? He entered the a house to steal. That's a felony in most place.
Here's the real case apparently: https://www.worldwideweirdnews.com/2013/02/w6673.html
CuddleWoozle said:It's not illegal to dig through garbage in the US. It was determined that whatever is set out at the curb in bins is 'public property' sort of. I don't remember the case directly, but there was one in the US and that was the outcome. So basically he was being checked out for acting weird/suspicious and they found the diapers. Probably just gave him a warning to try and discourage him from doing it again, because let's face it, that is weird. (And kind of makes me throw up a little in my mouth.)
It comes way too close to involving actual babies to be defensible, IMHO. "OH murr. Your baby pooped. Let me have the diaper!" Yeah, that's all kinds of wrong.
Calico said:I was confused why he was let off with a warning so that is what is getting me so obsessed because when something makes no sense I will fixate on it until I get answers and people not understanding what I am asking makes me even more obsessive. This was even a problem in school too.
So warnings are also issued to discourage behavior and it's not exclusive to breaking the law? If you speed, you are breaking the law so you may be let off with a warning. But doing something not illegal, let off with a warning if someone else didn't like it and it wasted the cop's time, am I right?
BabyTyrant said:He should not have gotten so desperate if he could actually get clean diapers, I mean I know how bad the urge can get, but walking in to somebody else's house for Dirty Diapers is just absolutely crazy.
CuddleWoozle said:It also depends on where the bins actually -were-. If they're out to the roadside for pickup, then they're 'fair game', but if they're still sitting up beside someone's house, you've trespassed. Trespassing usually gets a warning on the first offense. Like a "You should know better than to do this." After that, they get harsher with you. In the video it shows them out at the roadside, but I'm wondering if, IRL, they were closer to the house.
A lot of people would have just confronted him about it. I know I probably would stop and ask anyone poking around in my garbage. XD
Just like: "Hey, what are you after in there?"
I mainly put anything I feel might be 'usable' out to the side so that maybe someone will see it and stop and take it. It seems to be a common practice in my area. Yesterday we were driving and someone had put a bunch of yard toys for little kids out by the roadside next to their trash cans, the implied purpose of doing so is "HEY. Driver with little kids. See these things? They are free. Plz take them." I got a sandpit turtle that way. I stopped and said "Is that for free?" And they guy there said "It's for you if you want to haul it away!" So I crammed it into my little tiny car. :3
willnotwill said:It's actually illegal to pick through our single-stream trying to cherry pick out the valuable recyclables. The premise of the system is that the recyclers get that in exchange for talking the less valuable trash/recyclables.
Maybe he should have started a diaper recycling business. People would just give him the diapers.
Trevor said:If you're driven to breaking and entering for dirty diapers, I think it's fair to conclude that the fixation is the dirty diapers themselves. Possibly specifically baby diapeds. Clean diapers wouldn't scratch the itch. It's gross but I wouldn't care much if he could find some legal way of treating his compulsion.
BabyTyrant said:Yeah, that is borderline Pedophile behaviour IMO, but not illegal at least in the US as long as he was "dumpster diving" at the curb.
Calico said:I thought he would go for adult diapers too if they were available. But if used baby diapers are bordering on pedo behavior, why doesn't anyone else label ABs the same way when they use baby diapers specifically for wear and use? Same as for Goodnites and other toddler pull ups.
Are you trolling or do you have some kind of reading comprehension problem? Those dumpster divers have fixation to diapers used by babies and kids. ABDLs use diapers because they enjoy using them themselves.Calico said:I thought he would go for adult diapers too if they were available.
