Disgusting!!! Wonder if the guy would dump the tank into their family's own drinking water source? Video clip didn't say if they were caught, arrested, fined.

No, really, hope they were caught and "educated".

Settle down folks, this is a scene from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. It's the crazy uncle from Las Vegas. It never happened!

What do you mean it didn't happen? I live 30 miles from Albuquerque and it did happen!

The problem is they were identified as RV' s. That is an insult to all of us. They were not RV's...they were identified as homeless people. It is a shame that they & the press paint a broad stroke over all of us because they live in a vehicle.

Very disgusting! So if they're living in an RV that makes them homeless? Sorry full timers!

No, the tv news report reported that they were homeless people. Maybe they didn't have the means or knowledge to locate a sewer connection.

Agreed as an electrical I have been in a lot of homes that was only about 10% of what my 5er is.

There is a good chance the news people believe all a RV's are homeless. I'm a pilot & it drives me crazy when the news reports the crashed airplane is a Piper Cub when it was anything but. Obviously the news people either don't know what a real Piper Cub is or don't care.
The same could be true with the news report about dumping sewage.
