   LANSING, Mich. — Attention smugglers of empty soda cans: Stay   
   out of Michigan, or you could face jail time.   
      
   Lawmakers are taking aim at people who use out-of-state cans and   
   bottles to cash in on Michigan’s recycling refund, which pays 10   
   cents per container.   
      
   Legislation debated Tuesday would make an attempt to return   
   between 100 and 10,000 non-returnable containers punishable by   
   up to 93 days in jail or $1,000 in fines, or both. Current law   
   sets penalties only for those who actually return fraudulent   
   containers.   
      
   Angela Madden of the Michigan Beer and Wine Wholesalers   
   Association estimates that the state loses up to $13 million a   
   year from out-of-state cans.   
      
   She says many businesses don’t have the machines that read the   
   mark or code that indicates a container is from Michigan.

   Are you obligated as an armed civilian, to defend unarmed   
   liberals while you are both under fire by foreign agents of the   
   outlaw Obama administration?   
      
   No.  Shoot the liberals immediately so they can't stab you in   
   the back while you are defending yourself, then return a   
   controlled rate of aimed fire.
