The rest is a narrative I created. You accept some of my narrative but not the rest. I think my entire narrative is correct, but if we want to argue facts, the facts are simple. Guys put stuff on curb. Other guys put stuff on truck.

No, I accept that the whole thing was conjecture beyond the placing of objects onto kerb and into van :P

I'm just saying that assuming everyone followed the rules on something as potentially fraught as an eviction is a fragile premise from which to work.

Right, we don't know if the truck dude didn't show so the labor decided to move the goods to the curb so they would get paid and not be late for supper.

Mental gymnastics are fine, trash picking is fine, but taking someone else's shit is not. Arguing that anything on the sidewalk/curb is legally fair game is asking to eat a bullet. Cameras are everywhere, and a picture of you taking shit posted online, could be very costly.
