Just do it
Sadly the sitters were not in those forty trees.
I wonder how many cherry pickers they will have to use to harvest these 4 nuts?
I don’t think these idiots realize the danger they pose to others if something goes awry.
words fail me...
“What happens at 9:01 has yet to be determined.”
Just offer the hippies another tree deep in the redwoods’...
Really. If they’re in it, too bad.
If Clint Eastwood was mayor, he'd show up at 9:01am with nothing but an axe and a sneer.
Chop.
Chop.
Chop.

Better than that... show up with a gun full of rubber bullets and keep shooting till they say uncle.
These guys are proof that evolution doesn’t work for everyone.
“I wonder how many cherry pickers they will have to use to harvest these 4 nuts?”
Probably about the same number. They have to be bilinguals, though, and able to climb up and carry one down easily.
"At least one tree sitter on Tuesday began throwing bags of human waste on the approaching arborists."

BERKELEY, Calif. (KCBS) -- One woman was arrested Tuesday as authorities removed some of the structures that have housed tree sitting protesters in an oak grove UC Berkeley wants to cut down to make way for a $125 million athletic facility.
The protester was taken into custody after she reportedly bit one of the workers removing her supplies, according to police. Officers cordoned off part of Piedmont Avenue near Memorial Grove and brought in arborists to remove the platforms and gear the tree sitters have used to maintain their perches since December 2006. A university official had earlier said the tree sitters themselves would not be removed yet.
“One of the things we’re most concerned about is safety and security, of our police officers and the people in the trees. That’s the reason we’re not forcibly removing people from the trees today,” said Dan Mogulof, a spokesman for UC Berkeley.
Tuesday was not the first time the university has removed scaffolding built by the protesters, but removing the people has proven more difficult. One witness told KCBS reporter Tim Ryan at the scene that some of the tree sitters threw urine they had collected in buckets at the police and arborists to discourage them from climbing.

S***-house rats would take offense at comparison.
“Better than that... show up with a gun full of rubber bullets and keep shooting till they say uncle.”
No, real bullets and fire until they are all dead on the ground!
Get on with the cuttin’ already and let’s make some furniture.
Lemmee see...
They live in trees...
They smell bad...
They throw feces at you...
They physically attack people and often bite them...
BIGFOOT!!!!
Somebody call Art Bell!!!
More like crazed monkeys.
Couldn’t happen at a better University. They encouraged the lefties and they have to deal with them.
Let’s call em bigfoot. Might be a way we can scam a few bucks out of the deal!!
