Maryland, My Maryland

At Da Signal, Al Perrotta notices Maryland Loves My Ratty Old Rug More Than It Loves Me
I just had to show ID at my county dump. Yes, in order to get rid of my moldy, worn, faded, and generally disgusting old outdoor rug that my wife’s been bugging me for a year to dispose of, I had to hand the landfill worker my driver’s license. “My license?” I blurted. “Well, that’s new.” “Started last week,” he said before scanning the license into a newly installed contraption at road’s edge.

A few hundred yards away to the south, just on the other side of the tree line, rests our local community center. When I go there to fulfil my civic responsibility and American right to vote, nobody asks me for ID. And if Democrats have their way, nobody ever will.

I have to show ID to use the local dump but not the voting booth. My ratty old rug means more in Maryland than my vote. The thought’s enough to leave one down in the dumps. But Wait, Isn’t Making Me Show ID Racist?

If I were a Democrat, I’d be framing my complaint differently. Demanding a driver’s license … or shall I say Garbage ID … to discard junk is racist. It’s “Jim Crow 3.0,” to borrow from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. And sexist.

After all, the dump is a public facility. If you can’t provide an ID to prove you’re a local resident … and the Democrats assert that if you are black or a married woman, you are incapable of getting an ID … you must pay extra. The 2026 equivalent of a poll tax.

Maryland’s freshman senator, Angela Alsobrooks, is a black woman. Does she have any idea the oppression she’d face, the hardship she’d encounter, if made to show ID to use the Calvert County Appeal Landfill? It’s like Bull Connor himself is standing at the gate.

The Appeal Landfill is the main dump in southern Calvert County, the one you go to when you have something too big or obnoxious to take to one of the many "convenience" centers scattered about the county. FWIW, we've long had a little plastic decal in the car window that supposedly was necessary to drop stuff in the bins there, not that anyone ever really looked for them. 

One thing is nearly certain, Al Perrotta is a Lusbian
