Two of the last four tree sitters in the last redwood tree in the grove in front of Memorial Stadium gesture to the media and their supporters down below after speaking to the press by phone Monday morning, Sept. 8, 2008.. The 72-hour deadline that the University set has passed and the sitters will no longer have access to food or water.

BERKELEY — University of California, Berkeley officials said this afternoon that negotiations between the tree-sitters are over and the university is now considering what steps to take to get the four tree-sitters down from their perch within the next day or so. Get one guy dressed like a hippie, the other like a cop. Have the cop give the tree sitters the finger, while simultaneously the hippie makes a peace sign. They'll come down.

Mogulof said a professional mediator crafted a proposal — that was signed Sunday by university Vice Chancellor Nathan Brostrom — agreeing to giving the tree activists a say in land use decisions, in UC's future donations to environmental causes and other things. What a bunch of weenies in Berkeley! If they hadn't been so outrageously rude to the Marines, the Marines might have come over and shaken the trees until these nutjobs feel out of them. Problem solved. But noooooooo. . . UC just continues to promise them all kinds of things if they'll just quit breaking the law and trespassing. Whaaaaaaaaaa

University people have no common sense.
Instead of all the talking - don't let anyone send food, water or any toilet access to them & those loons will be happy to 'climb themselves down'!!

This is definitely a case of Berkeley’s chickens coming home to roost!
The schadenfreude is delicious - couldn’t happen to a more deserving “community”.

UC Berkeley should consider BB guns to get these vermin out of their trees.

The UN needs to pass several resolutions calling for the tree huggers to end their siege.
