Halloween trick indeed

I would like to personally thank the groups of adults and children that come into our neighborhood to trick or treat every year. You all know the ones I speak of. They don't live there. They don't even know anyone who lives in the neighborhood. They just bring their kids in to trick or treat and have a good time.

I don't have a problem with that. What I do have a problem with, is that they allow their kids to eat their Halloween candy in their car, then blatantly throw their trash on the street in front of my house -- along with their McDonald's cups, dirty diapers, and whatever else they had in their car that they deemed unnecessary.
