Does the moron who blames this shooting on the "results of 40 years of PLP and FNM government leadership" think that a politician killed this man? The Greeks believed that "empty vessels make the most noise" and it appears whoever wrote the comment has the intellect of a cocoanut.

OK,

Regardless of the senseless crime - I have to ask the question.

A **battery recycling shop through Augusta Street** - how and where do they dispose of the battery acid?

Is there an agency of Environmental Health that accepts used battery acid?

Or is just put in a drum and dumped at the dump?

Or is just poured down a sink hole or drain out back?

Who is checking up on these recycling facilities to ensure that they are following best environmental practices?
