Maybe the Pennsylvanians confused the Jersey Shore with Jersey Shore, PA.

Authorities said Friday that Thomas McFarland took his motorboat to Townsend Inlet near Avalon on Aug. 22 and dumped a bag full of some 300 dental-type needles, along with 180 cotton swabs and other materials from his Wynnewood, Pa., medical office. According to police affidavits, McFarland admitted tossing the material from his boat.



why would you DO something like that!? Proper disposal of medical waste can't be all that expensive...and I'll bet the fine and jail time will be FAR more expensive and humiliating than having paid someone to dispose of that waste legally.

I like this idea.

 
goneja 2008-09-07 07:02:11 PM  
yeah, why WOULD you do this? Oh come it certainly can't cost that much to get rid of medical waste in a dental office. I mean christ, why not just bury it in your farking backyard? Out in the ocean sounds stupid, considering needles probably float.

Some of the debris actually closed the beach where I live (Brigantine, just a stone's throw north of Atlantic City) for a few hours. It wasn't just Avalon.

FTFY


I used to go down to Avalon. I spent every summer there. It has gone from a very cool place to stay to an overcrowded mess of hyperzealous police and crowded everything.

There is ZERO relaxation now. Plus the water is as brown as ever.

$1M+ for a basic home surrounded by douchebags. The bay is too shallow for even a runabout at low tide.

The bars are packed with "players".

/the sand is great though still


I love it here now in the summer. All the a-holes are down there. It is nice and quiet up here on the Main Line with all the biatchy mommies and their Escalades down at 7MI.

what's the difference between trash and jersey girls?

trash gets picked up... except on the jersey shore...

Hey, with the truckloads of trash NJ ships up here every day, it's only fair.

Still waiting for any possible reason for doing this.

Anyone?

Does anyone have a plausible motive for why he would do this?

Is he just trying to save some expense for disposal you think? I wouldn't imagine that it would be so expensive that one would risk getting caught. Farking dig a hole and bury it next time, or something.

I can't stand snobs from PA who act all high and mighty because they're under the misconception that New Jersey must be SOOO horrible compared to Pennsylvania.

And being that Philly is the only thing remotely interesting in the entire state of PA, I'm not sure what you have to be proud of either.

NJ/NY > PA/KY

It's not about pride. It's about excitement. Concentrated stupidity is still excitement.

A different article said the medial waste was all unused, so it wasn't a matter of disposal. My guess would be a vendetta against Avalon, and an attempt to ruin one of their biggest weekends of the year?

Hershey: Boring as shiat, cheap-ass chocolate. Been there, wish I hadn't done that. Gettysburg: I'm a history buff, but really? Do you need to see that place more than once? And Harrisburg? Jebus, yeah never mind. Your state is SO exciting. Harrisburg... Harrisburg.

Yup, you convinced me.
