Personally I hate the B***ARDS, I watched the decline of one of Pacific NWs largest industrys go to the dump after those Azzholes came around and now it has got personal:
http://neighborgreen.blogspot.com/
That blog is about my sister that wants to remove two large trees on HER PROPERTY, the reason is that in a wind storm they could come down on her house. Not to mention the maintenance nightmare for her causing her to clean out clogged gutters and drains a couple times every year. Her house is tall so it requires hiring people to do it. She is a single mom on a elementary teachers salary so every dime counts. They not only posted this blog, but they also stapled posters about this BS on telephone poles all over our neighboorhood.
So what is your opinion of these kinds of jerk offs. Personally if we were not here in good old US of A, say in Indonesia, I would just give the Army colonel some cash under the table and the problem would go away

I call them ******* idiots. I should go running around letting them know I leveled about 25ish trees on my property. They were in the way of where I wanted my shop so down they went. Also took out a few others to have a nice backyard for my daughter and dog to play in.

I love me some big ole pine trees...but **** if they're in your way chop those ******* down...since i bought my house i've had 6 trees come down in windstorms...the biggest was over 5 feet in diameter and it scares the **** out of me to think what would have happened had it hit my daughter's room, the left half of the master bed wouldn't have been so bad in retrospect...

I can't believe people waste time being concerned about what other people do to their own property. Those people need to get a life.
Not to long ago some tree hugger group stopped a school from cutting down some trees because the school needed to move in some mobiles to make room for additional classes. These treehuggers got a court order for them to stop, and they'll go argue it in court. What really ticks me off about it is the fact that now this school has to go pay lawyers to defend them, spending tax payers money in the process. So thanks tree huggers for costing me money (not this was in a school district that I live in, but you get the point)

My buddy is a tree hugger, event goes to college to master the art of tree huggery, but even he isn't against this kind of stuff, he just yells at people fore putting beer cans in fires and lakes and what not.
BOttom line is people like that blogger make me want to
And someone should inform them that trees don't have a voice for one reason... it is a ******* tree!

Trees...Grow...Back! Just tell her to offer to plant 3 times as many trees in another location and send a gerbil to Eric Stein at city hall so he can shove it where it makes him happy. Problem solved.

The big guns in the paper industry has made adjustments as well....instead of building new plants here in America, they go offshore....places like South America, and SE Asia where labor is cheap and enviromental restrictions are laxed. Here where it can cost millions just to do a damn enviromental impact statement, in other parts of the world they don't even know what it is. Here where these idiots are worried about trees in someones backyard, in SE Asia or South America they are mowing down the rain forests for $$$ that is where all those idiots should go and live in a cave. Let them try to stop the carnage there, and see what happens.

Just go take the C6 Z06 out front of their place and lay a nice huge burnout. They will be busy screaming about the exhaust you just spewed in the air and ignore the trees long enough for your sister to cut them down.
