Yes Maria...It is a lack of respect on the people of Tulsa for allowing the city to become filthy. The individuals who litter do not care about our city's upkeep nor do they have respect for our fellow citizens. This is truly sad because Tulsa has potential to be truly beautiful. I don't believe the city in the slightest--notice in the video, the woman says she sent 20-50 emails from various email accounts-- she might not have listed her real name on every complaint. I would not. Aren't the complaints to the city suppose to anonymous? GUESS NOT.Did she go to one of the places she complained about to pick up trash? That would be interesting to know.

Thank you Wiltshire for trying to help! I LOVE that you are out doing the job yourself and setting an example. I get so frustrated when people leave their trash scattered about.I tried to make a complaint to the city and got really frustrated when the complaint kicked back a response that said the effort to clean up the area could take several weeks...Geez!I want the city to remain beautiful as well and we all need to do our part!

I believe the young lady made the complaints bowlerdave. I have made many complaints to the city and nothing ever seems to get resolved. I am glad there is an individual willing to help our community. And so should you...:)

I am also a native, and I can tell you, it is getting trashier and trashier every day, it IS embarassing, I go out and pick up trash up and down my street after the trash pickup twice a week, they spread trash all over.

Griper: I've emailed 20-50 times (broad number range there). City: We've received 2 emails and addressed both. Wow. It takes a special person to make me take the government's word over there's.
