These events only apply to model citizens who have stockpiled hazardous materials rather than throwing in trash.
Illegals will dispose of work order residue anyway possible, and that’s normally on the side of the road

I am by no means a model citizen nor do I ever want to be accused of being one. I think you’re painting illegals with a broad brush with your comment.
