Should not there have been some discussion..about chopping down a tree...on Public property to do anything with?

HELL NO! Anyone who wants to exhibit "outrage" over a perishable aesthetic, or value in "old growth" anything, is someone deserving of nothing but contempt.

That there may be a multiplicity of such fools in any particular locality, and those willing to sympathize with their flapdoodle, is no mitigator.

Well....I guess you would think me in contempt.

So be it....
