“It always amazes me the lengths that some attention-starved trust fund brats will go to just to impose their will on others. With all of the truly honorable moral battles out there (Iraq, gay marriage, right to choose, etc.), these irrelevant dolts waste their time and our money to protect a few trees that are neither valuable nor old-growth. Truly selfish. They deserve to be doused in their own excrement.”

“Her age of 19 is irrelevant as the IvoryTowerDungThrowers dwell in the land of emotional adolescence. Dumpstermuffin has got to be one of the more prophetic monikers to emerge from the land where Lucy in the Sky and Magic the Mushroom dwell. These damaged individuals would be bereft in a perfect world...”
Living in trees, biting people, and throwing feces and urine? Forget the jail. They need to lock these animals up in the local zoo.
Peaceniks angry? It can't be...

“Dear Tree-S*itters: When you have to resort to flinging poo and pee, you have lost the war. Now, go dedicate yourselves to some cause that requires REAL WORK AND HEART and will actually benefit someone, but first, please shower.”
Thanks! I only read the first few.. I agree. What a waste of time and energy.
The biter’s name is Millipede.. which for some reason , I think may actually be her real name.. knowing this crowd. ;-)
I think Saul Alinsky (”Rules for Radicals”) would have told them they had lost the public sympathy and to pack it in.
Didn’t Clinton get his start as a tree s(h)itter?
Trees are weeds. Ask any farmer.
> Living in trees, biting people, and throwing feces and urine? Forget the jail. They need to lock these animals up in the local zoo.
Oh please, then PETA would be on the case for cruelty to animals (and in this rare case, they would be right! :-)
A recent change in (Oregon) laws, based on prison cases, where this happens frequently, has made flinging feces a felony. Hopefully Dumpster Muffcake and her pal Stinky will get a chance to eat some of their own medicine soon.
Taze him.
Norm! You watchin’ this crazy lady on channel 4? She’s 100’ up in the tree shaking the h@ll out of a box she’s sitting in. She’s gonna splat live on TV. I’m going out to dinner. Someone get screen caps!
p.s. Her name is dumpster muffin!
I am rather surprised that the locals didn’t hit on the obvious sulution - prune the trees, 24/7.
Any branch without a libtard on it, you cut off the tree.
By now, they would be pole sitters, at best.
