An open-ended tubular region extends through the bag between its donut-shaped top and donut-shaped bottom. A rigid container having an open top is disposed in the tubular region of the bag with its open top being coupled to the donut-shaped top of the bag. A liquid fills the bag. A ballistic fabric is situated inside of the trash can and outside of the donut-shaped bag.
