#News #Alabama #HumanWaste
Keep voting for the party of big business and less regulation 😂😆
$hit happens
NY, Keep your sh!t where it belongs: in your state!⚠️
How does she know what a rotting corpse smells like?
Poop converted to fertilizer for food? Man we’ve screwed things up!
Human waste makes the best compost. Farmers will be begging for it once it is broken down to fertilizer! It doesn’t smell at all once it is processed in compost containers. I have one in my backyard and I live in the country here in Florida. Can’t get hotter and more humid than that. Sure it was smelling in the containers because they could truck it to their site quick enough. But having the waste railed directly will eliminate the oder 100%.
Probably making compost for growing fruits and vegtables at least there doing something good with it, but they would rather it just end up in the lakes and rivers then to the ocean. Not many smells get to me I repair garbage trucks for Republic Services and some of the Front end loaders and Side loaders are horrible when you get old seafood, rotting meat, baby diapers, dead animals, and everything else in 1 place its a smell you cant forget..
Local government officials getting paid off
It’s used to fertilize crop and the produce is labeled as organic. My uncle had a dairy farm in California and witnessed the organic poop produce
“my poop don’t stink”. -Mayor Deblasio when he ordered this transport
Alabama is not obligated to take anything that their own politicians won’t allow. Look there, for the blame.
They should send it to TexASS, instead.
Hahaha 🤣.. everything goes back to it’s true source..
Oh thats nasty.
[Cleveland brown voice]
Is there no way they can do better than just covering it with a tarp? Conceal the smell!! Poor people having to deal with that smell..
Old poop breathe
That smelly smell that smells… smelly!
No one’s robbing that train.
*Doo!!! Doo!!!*
Liberals always trying to force their sh*t onto other people.
On one hand complain that liberals want to impose too many regulations. On the other hand…, blame liberals when things like this happen.
REAAAL LOGICAL.
You vote for less regulations, you get less regulations. It’s a win win lol. But I would not want to live next or near that place LOL!
Just pray on it and put it in god’s hands. He’ll fix it.
I hear the ‘Im the conductor of the poop train!’ dude
Sell your house now
Dump it in New York.
Clean
I the poop express.
All aboard!
Terrorized!
I work for Csx the travel garbage by train all the time the dump it everywhere they dump it right in Niagara Falls
2:20 “I’m fed up with politicians of all levels”.
I agree, politicians in every party needs to do better.
Roll Tears 🤣
It’s all fun and games until the Poop Train derails somewhere along the east coast
Wait, why is poop being delivered from the north east to the south?
American Civil war never really ended!
Out of state human waste & poop train – words I never thought I’d ever hear.
Imagine if that train derailed and the mess it would leave 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Put big amount of sugar and milk and make chocolate pudding feed it to the prison population
New bumper sticker says.. Never been to Alabama but my sh*t goes there…
I guess in this situation money 💰 talks an “crap” rides on trains.lol
Human waste contains Covid 19 ….so it shouldn’t be getting transported.
I don’t know why they are not in better cars. What happens if that train derails. They would have one big mess on there hands.
They should attach some nasty odor to the trailers getting broken into in LA, now seeing this that I’ve never seen. If the La trailers get opened to early or without a special key it should release nasty sprays to keep perps from breaking inside and stealing packages
Some of the homeless out here would probably still take shelter on the poop train
LOL
Capitalism!
Lmao they think they poop don’t stink its probably in the mix aswell
You’ve heard of a Choo Choo train, but have you ever seen a Poo Poo train?
Thomas the Stank Engine
lots of crap in NY
If you’ve ever been to Alabama.. then you know that ADEM is doing them a favor.
Hahahaha! I’m betting that evil troll Jeffahson Sessions sold the state out!
Day Without Immigrants” to protest for immigration reform in the US.
Hispanic influencers and activists have asked the community not to work, shop or got to school on February 14.
The idea is that a day without immigrants will illustrate how much of our everyday lives depend on immigrants.
!!!!!!!!!!–
Sorry, I had taco bell last night
NY….the south doesn’t want your opinion or your sh!t.
Well, Alabama shouldn’t mind taking in poop from New York, they accepted Trump, didn’t they?
Vietnam flash back – poop train coming thru
Poo choo train.
Good red States want to live free off the Blue states.
lmao, alabama deserves it
Lol Mr Hankey had a poop train he called the “poo Choo express” it went “poo chooooo”
Poop Train????
New York is a terrible state
Definition of being pooped on.
Do you ever wonder how people that have never even set foot in a morgue always claim that something smells like a decaying corpse? This woman, for instance – how many corpses has SHE sniffed at today? Miss Lawd.
0:02 HAHAHA
🤣
Ppl from Alabama are pos anyways
You will be alright
“Alabama is full of sh*t”, lol
I thought the poop out of New York moved to Florida. Don’t worry Governor memaw will collect all the money then blame it on Joe. She done away with the Don’t Dump it on Alabama signs. Tuberville & Brooks insider trading deals, which end of the stick did they hand the State. We clean up from oil spills to have others septic tanks emptied here. I’m not buying the if you can’t say something nice crap. Don’t say nothing at all is what’s said when asked about a shooting in Montgomery Daily. Today it was a 3yr old. But everything’s Great in Alabama. Maybe DC can send theirs also, might locate some Documents you could sale.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This story stinks.💩
Didnt Krieg have a poop train voiceline in borderlands 2
That’s one way to get people to wear masks
That’s what happens when Trump rolls into town on the train.
This deal smells…
I thought every city and town had thier own sewage treatment plant that turns the crap into water then dump it into rivers
why are we sending human waste out of state on trains??? im sorry what???
And this is supposedly a first world country WTH ??
It’s just to remind the people of Alabama how their state police force behaves and treats the public..
Up gotta go catch thay poop 💩 train
Luckily mask mandates are still in place 😁
The evolution of the function of the human nose has been a long one. Most people are skittish and put off by even the mention of the word “poop”, but they forget that a very long time ago when food shortages were common with early man, the nose would pick up the odor of feces and read it as: “I am not food so don’t eat me if you know what’s good for you!” If body waste smelled like a kitchen at Thanksgiving, we may very well have evolved into a species of crap eaters. How weird would that have been? Lol
This is an incredible piece of journalism. I’m floored.
Bama is the Best place for it! They should dump on the Crimson Tide field!
Years ago, I’m talking many, many years ago, I was reading about another country that turned human waste into biofuel and they used it to run the city buses on. There are no emissions and no smell and it’s free to use…
Why aren’t we funding this?
“I’m only one man, Marge”
My thing is where can they put. It ? This honestly is one of the problems to world pollution where can we put it safely and securely?
Why don’t they dump human waste in volcanos???
Alabama is now New York’s sewer 😂😂
This video is right up NBC ally!
Omg I remember this ten years ago I can’t believe this is still happening
💩🚽💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩🚽💩🚽💩🚽💩💩💩🚽🚽💩🚽🚽💩💩💩💩💩
Every year 100’s of thousands of pounds of human waste is left around
Wtf people r dumping human waste and just letting it rot on the Earth’s surface.
That’s one sticky situation that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Crap is supposed to roll downhill not in train cars.
I live in in the finger lakes ny and all of nyc garbage ends up in our land fills. Follow the money.
We transport human waste to other state??? I thought we process them in the state?
“Our crap don’t stink.”
Correct me if I’m wrong but couldn’t it be somewhat composted or something?
