Call tea a pollutant down South, that would be a butt woopin’
A Cedar Rapids group will do a symbolic tea dumping into the Cedar River on Saturday because state officials won’t let them use the real thing.
An anti-tax group wanted to pitch in real tea like the Bostonian revolutionaries opposed to England’s tea taxes.
Tea, although natural and quite tasty, is considered a pollutant that can’t go into a body of water without a permit, said Mike Wade, a senior environmental specialist at the DNR’s Manchester field office.
“Discoloration is considered a violation,†Wade said.
Maybe they should dump Wade in the river, which is none too clean to start with. But, if the politicians get the idea….
they did hold the tea dump yesterday, but NO officials were close p-( just the media.
there is also a rumor that they had tar and feathers on hand
