Dave R, I kinda disagree respectfully with this part of your statement "It's likely some younger people just being a bit rebellious and acting out. When they grow up and stop the nonsense, they will be replaced by more that will act out for a few years and so on.

I recommend not letting it get you down; chalk it up to immaturity/teen angst and assume the guilty parties will be victims of the same sort of crap later in their lives."

I see more adults trashing our streets than I see teenagers. That could be because the adults do it during the day or anytime and the teens mostly do it in the evenings when I'm not viewing it. When I was growing up this didn't seem to be a problem as I remember and regarding cigarettes, we didn't have the filter ones and the regulars would break down so no one would ever see them. Better manners have to be taught some how and that SHOULD start at home, but the parents are doing it right along with them.
