Perfect opportunity to post what I consider to be the hands-down, greatest video of all-time, Hippies Crying Over Dead Trees

Wow, OL Hickory, that felt so good to LAUGH AT someone who deserved to be ridiculed. Thanks. I hope they were from every religion, color and tribe, because these poor souls have indeed lost their way in the WOODS.
I bet they scared the crap out of the beavers.
Couldn’t watch the creepy, cult-like ranting past a few seconds. I’m actually embarrassed for them, should they ever come to their senses—this video will probably never die until the earth does.
where are the straight jackets?
Talking to plants that have no auditory ducts. Screaming at the sky. 100% democrat voters.
Eco-Warriors having an emotional moment. Sniff, sniff.
Old growth. LOL
Someone needs to fly these crybabies over the state of NC some day. There are massive swaths of the state that are forested. The state claims that 59% of the state is forested, covering more than 18 million acres http://www.ncforestassessment.com/pdf/Forest%20Inventory%20and%20Analysis%20Factsheet,%20North%20Carolina%202002_May%202006.pdf
That’s more than TWO ACRES of forest per resident (even more if you exclude illegal residents...). 552,000 acres, were classified as reserved forestland—e.g., national parks or wilderness areas, which is to say they will be preserved for posterity (or at least until the U.S. goes bankrupt...). True, these are not all old growth forests, but I’m pretty sure the bazillions of critters living in them don’t give a hoot whether they are housed by 400 year old trees or 40 year old trees.
Needless to say, there are plenty of other states with even more impressive figures regarding % forested and/or acres of forest per resident. I’d venture to guess that at least some Western states whose reserved forestlands alone exceed 1 or 2 acres per resident. Only in America would we find spoiled yuppies crying that such massive quantities of forestland were too little.
I hope a tree falls on them.
