What's the weirdest/worst thing you've found going curbside trash scrapping

Today I picked up a handgun. Thought it was a bb gun. Till i got home and took a look at it. So I had to turn it in to the police station since I'm only 17 and don't have a gun ownership license. yet... Interrogated for about an hour at the station repeating the same thing about 4 times.


So now...... what about you? got something funny/weird/cool/creepy to share?

I would have kept it myself, nothing required here in Florida. When I did live in Illinois I had a FOID card. I guess it may help solve a crime though, you never know. Would hate to end up with a gun that had committed a murder or such. Good for you. Sorry the cops pestered you for so long, It had to be obviuos that you were doing a good thing.

Found a dildo curbside once when trash picking. It was purple. We named it Barney. We took it to a party and never saw it again. I guess someone wanted it. True story.

If I was legally able to, I would have kept it for sure! But this guy had it hidden in a cardboard box inside a recycle bin with bottles cans and paper all over it. Didn't seem like he knew of any non-sketch ways to get rid of it. and the only reason I found it was because he had a whole pile of scrap i picked up. At those places, i check everything.

some guy probably had to snort a few lines before he could come up with him.

I think some one posted once there was a market for used dildos, more then scrap value. just sayin. down here they are more likely to take found dildos home and found guns to the party.

Who knows, A cartoon version of his wife maybe??

When I was a kid I was playing around a creek bed and found a human skull. Took it home to my parents and my Dad wanted me to take him back where I found it. He never found anything else. Must have floated down stream. I still wounder to this day who he/ she was.

I agree, if it isn't found to be lost, stolen or used in a crime, you should be able to claim possession. You will need someone with a FOID card to take possession in Illinois. If you don't intend on keeping it, I can recommend a good gun shop to sell it on consignment that is near you.

O.K. i just have to ask what in the world is a FOID card for a gun this boggles my mind
dang glad i dont live there
I know CCL i have one of those and do carry. but just to own one ???? that aint right!!

Firearms Identification Card.In order to own a gun in Il. owner must have a card to purchase a gun and ammo and i believe must have card on person when in possession of gun and ammo.And no Il. does not have right to carry for those who were wondering

So a DOID would be
