Now we have a case where an adult has tortured and killed trees. And instead of treating this as a form of sociopathy, the judge let her walk.
Used poison in Stanley Park
Wanted to improve waterfront view
"The public has denounced her conduct much more than the court could," Judge Ellen Gordon said in handing June Matheson, 72, an absolute discharge after she pleaded guilty yesterday to killing the trees to get a better view of English Bay. Matheson admitted to poisoning trees in front of her expensive, third-floor condominium, which were blocking her scenic view near Stanley Park.
Where is the justice. Where is the minimum sentence of at least five years for tree slaughter. For taking a sentient life. Where are the druids and their human sacrifice (capital punishment) when ya need them.
And what does the Green Party have to say about this senseless slaughter. Will Jim Harris come out with a law and order platform in defense of trees! Tree huggers everywhere want to know. Whatcha gonna do Jim?
The Liberals and Conservatives want to ban guns. How about banning pesticides and herbicides which in the wrong hands can cause the death of innocents. I can hear the right wing defenders of private property now; "Herbicides don't kill trees, people kill trees".
