Why Do Playgrounds Use Toxic Waste For Ground Cover?

There is a playground near our vacation house that uses chopped up rubber mulch to cover the ground.

The first time we went there it was the middle of the summer heatwave and it was hot as fuck.

The burnt rubber/oil/petroelum product smell was god aweful, so we left.

My question is what fucking eco-tard, tree hugging, enviro-douche, progressive asshat moonbat thought it was a good idea to take discarded tires and god knows what the fuck else, grind it up, paint it with some wired looking shit to make it appear “natural” and then place this shit smelling material on playgrounds where children play?

I’m all for recycling shit when possible, but what the fuck, this stuff was truly potent and the smell was still on our shoes and clothes when we got home.

Thanks moonbats and faux environmentalist whack jobs that won’t let people cut down trees for use as mulch for playgronds.

And isn’t it ironic that these same idiots are the ones that bitch about the dangers of treated lumber in our parks, yet are more than happy to place shit smelling toxic waste down, as long as it makes them feel like they are saving mother earth (power vomit on my fucking shoes right now.)

Face palm for moonbats everywhere…

I’ve got no dog in this fight - but this is the Free Market at work here:

It’s probably there because fucktards like you bitch and complain about everything. And if your inbred child skinned it’s knee you’d sue everyone possible.

So thanks for fucking it up for everyone dickshit.

Edit to add: crap, jerk, mooseknuckle, fiat money system, Republican’ts, moonbats, conspiracy, and whatever else word jumble you’re using in posts these days.

fiat currency lovin’ sons of bitches are all a bunch of asstard libhat douchesocialists

Do you walk around with a stick up your a**, or do you just insert it before logging on to slowtwitch?

Why are you playing in the playground when you don’t have any kids?

Our new jail has similar material as ground cover next to the building. I suppose that is to help keep inmates from getting hurt if they manage to escape out of the windows.

Save a tree!

Shred a tire!

Poison Our Kids!

We Are Moobats for America!!!

Last time I looked, rubber comes from trees. Rubber trees to be exact, so no trees were saved. Feel better?

Why are you playing in the playground when you don’t have any kids?

He has a restraining order which requires he not visit the ball pit at McDonalds.

He just likes the smell of burning rubber…

Its not to save trees. Its to meet the new federal safety laws for how hard the surface around play structures can be.

The funny thing is I have heard there is more than 1 study that shows more kids get hurt on the softer stuff than good old fashioned dirt.

I’ll bet it burns real nice.

My question is what fucking eco-tard, tree hugging, enviro-douche, progressive asshat moonbat thought it was a good idea to take discarded tires and god knows what the fuck else, grind it up, paint it with some wired looking shit to make it appear “natural” and then place this shit smelling material on playgrounds where children play?

that’s an excellent question. i encourage you to find out whose idea this is and what the rationale was behind it, and then let us know.

Lets take a look at what you actually meant by this post.

There is a playground near our vacation house the Motel 6 that I frequent that uses chopped up rubber mulch to cover the ground.

The first time we I went there I furtively hid in the bushes near the monkey bars. It was the middle of the summer heatwave and it was hot as fuck I was sweaty & nervous. My self loathing was at an all-time high.

The burnt rubber/oil/petroelum product smell was god aweful brought back warm memories of my time as an alter boy, (and the teacher saw me) so we I left ran away from my demons.

My question is what fucking eco-tard, tree hugging, enviro-douche, progressive asshat moonbat thought it was a good idea to take discarded tires and god knows what the fuck else, grind it up, paint it with some wired looking shit to make it appear “natural” and then place this shit smelling material on playgrounds God I hate my life. Where do children play? I miss Michael Jackson.

I’m all for recycling covering myself in shit when possible, but what the fuck, this stuff was truly potent and the smell was still on our shoes and clothes when we got home reminded me how much I loath myself.

Thanks moonbats and faux environmentalist whack jobs that won’t let people cut down trees for use as mulch for playgronds. Please somebody on Slowtwitch pay attention to me. I’m so lonely.

And isn’t it ironic that these same idiots are the ones that bitch about the dangers of treated lumber in our parks, yet are more than happy to place shit smelling toxic waste down, as long as it makes them feel like they are saving mother earth (power vomit on my fucking shoes right now.) Maybe if I regurgitate the seven phrases that I know in a different word salad someone will like me, as I obviously hate myself.

Face palm for moonbats everywhere… Time to go sort the mail.

Hey Mopdick, I see that Santander’s yield is up to 10.28%, you must be raking in the dough…excuse me, I mean the “fuck you” money.

LMFAOAY!!!

Edit* Damn, I see that STD is down fucking 15% in the last 5 days.

Fuck, cut your losses man.

It is heavier than natural mulch, so it tends to stay in the playground area.

Once you put it down, it lasts for years, and doesn’t have to be renewed every year like a natural mulch.

Environmental reasons aren’t probably even on the radar. This stuff is fairly cheap and available and it gets the job done better than the natural stuff.

On a side note, a park by my house has been closed indefinitely because of arsenic toxicity in the soil thanks to leaching from the treated lumber. They made a big deal when it was built because it was 100% community volunteerism that designed it and built it. Now the City is left figuring out what to do with the newly created brownfield that was once a playground.
