Greenie Charged With Littering

(Beachwood, Ohio) An environmentalist was distributing flyers on SUVs when he got into an argument with a woman who didn't want his flyer on her windshield. The woman gave the flyer back to the 41-year-old greenie who became upset and threw the flyer on the ground. After being called by a passing motorist, police charged the environmentalist with littering and disorderly conduct. The report didn't name the littering environmentalist.

Personally, I think there should be ordinances to prevent organizations from blanketing parking lots with flyers of any kind. In my mind, it doesn't make a difference whether the paper is on the ground or the windshield. It's litter.
