Shocking as it may seem, in residential districts it is currently not illegal (or not enforced) to discharge such a large quantity of a toxic product so as to injure another party.

Many legal products, on the market today, are toxic. For some categories of products, reading the label or MSDS sheet helps to understand the adverse human health effects.

We are all familiar with products that have come off of the market; and all too often people believe that no more dangerous products are left on the market. In fact, products come off the market regularly because their adverse health effects become publicly known.

StopToxicTrespass.org exists to sponsor legislation which is fair to all sides and which protect people from toxic trespass.
