A suburban Atlanta garbage collector has been incarcerated after being arrested for starting work too early.

The sanitation worker, Kevin McGill, was sentenced to 30 days in jail after being cited for simply picking up the trash shortly after 5 a.m., one time.

A Sandy Springs city ordinance only allows for the hauling of trash between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.

McGill was shocked when prosecutor Bill Riley requested the maximum penalty for violating the ordinance.

“I was stunned. I didn’t know what to think. I was shocked,” said McGill.

According to ABC 7, McGill had only been on the job for three months.

To sentence this man to 30 days of being held hostage by the state for being early for work one day, seems…

Take Action: Petition Demanding Obama Administration Prosecute Endangered Species Killers

Howling For Justice

Let the Obama administration know we want killers of endangered species to be prosecuted. Do it for Echo and all endangered species!

===

From the Endangered Species Coalition 

TELL THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO PROSECUTE ENDANGERED SPECIES KILLERS

A little known and decades old Department of Justice policy is protecting the killers of endangered grizzly bears, whooping cranes, California condors and wolves.

The so-called “McKittrick Policy” was enacted after a Montana man gunned down a wolf and later claimed he had thought he was firing on a dog. He was prosecuted, though the Department of Justice (DOJ) later decided to accept his self-exoneration by claimed ignorance and has clung to that policy of inaction for years.

Endangered species need to be protected from hunters that can simply claim they did not know what they were shooting at.

Tell President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder to drop the McKittrick Policy and…

Prince William Urges China To Fight Against Illegal Poaching | Ecorazzi

Life or Lunch?

Prince William finished his visit to China by condemning illegal wildlife trafficking and calling on the country to be a world leader in the fight against it.

The Duke of Cambridge ended his four-day tour of China with a speech at the Xishuangbanna Elephant Sanctuary in Yunnan Province on Wednesday.

“It is appalling that elephants – and many others – may be extinct in the wild in our lifetimes,” he said, while also mentioning that the extinction of other animals such as rhinos and pangolins would be “an immeasurable loss to the whole of humanity.”

Just last December, the Prince revealed his intention to target China, a country with the highest demand for illegal wildlife products, like ivory, in front of the World Bank.

But Prince William made sure to praise China in his speech for its “contribution to the protection of wildlife in Africa,” as well as for its implementation…
