Fact is, "A PICTURE'S WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS" and on Monday, October 8th at 7:30 AM, this picture was taken, when for the first time ever, the gate was actually shut and locked. Only ONE weekend after this nightmare began, and as you can see, there is one hell of a mess sitting in the parking lot, on the outside of the gate. Why? Because everyone else in the free world who donated items to this charity prior to this day, also trespassed through that same already unlocked, open gate. If they hadn't, there would have been this same mess sitting in the parking lot last weekend, as you see here this weekend. And just in case anyone out there is interested in that toilet you see in the background of the picture above... it is probably still considered theft even though the donated items were left on the outside of the gate this time, not inside.
Also, if there is anyone out there who has ever donated to this particular charity or any charity at all during closed hours of operation, this includes Sunday, violators will be prosecuted. Remember donating is to give, not take, which is also a crime, seriously!
Lesson learned, it's better to have a garage sale, keep the money, and let the needy fend for themselves. Just kidding, I really do have a big heart and will continue to donate during open hours of operation only!
