Â Â Â To everyone else in the thread... we see here another perfect example of the type of person that would do something like this and this mindset is a widespread and major problem in our country.

How ya feel about them? Are their feelings important to you? At least I'm intellectually honest. Â And no, asshat, I wouldn't poison someone else's trees. But I ain't going to get my panties in a knot when someone else does. Â Dude. Edited February 17, 2011 by joesixpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumbalaya Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Call me a tree hugger, but what this moron did ranks with Vick's dog antics. Wanton disregard for living things. And how passive can anything be like a 100 year old tree? He should get at least two years in jail. The man has no soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Your latest argument is that because people care about trees, that they don't care about humans? Â Is that what you're trying to express? Â Â Â No, my point is that Dr. Dank, for all his sermonizing and holier-than-thou nonsense has cherry picked an issue near to his heart. I'd like to see him defend the "feelings" of others who don't share his opinion. But, to save everyone's excitement levels, he won't. Because, SJ, he's a hypocrite like everyone else. Â Example: http://forums.twobil...pt/page__st__40 Â In this thread, he expresses his overwhelming sensitivity for his fellow man in even more profound ways.

dayman Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) This just has Alabama written all over it IMO. This is hilarious.  Here he admits to poisoning the tree on a radio show.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hm8AqL9FV-o  I think this lead the police to investigate and sure enough he was telling the truth. Tree was poisoned and now he is arrested!

Cynical Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Even if it wasnt about the NC at the time, it was still over a stupid rivalry. And across all the radio shows down here this week, I have not heard one Bama fan condemn the actions, its all been "Thats what they get". Pitiful and pathetic.  Interesting statement to make. I'll disagree and so does this person:  http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2011/02/despite_rivalry_many_bama_fans.html  It would be nice for Bama to step forward with ANY type of statement or action on this...  Why? What does the University of Alabama have to do with this?  Where was Auburn's statement or action regarding Saban's lake house being vandalized this past year by alleged Aubbie fans?  Where's Cynical? Im interested in his take on this.  Quite simple. The guy is an ****. I, as well as others that I know, do not condone what he did. I do not condone vandalism, whether it's a tree, somebody's lake house, or a player's lawn.  The guy's actions were petty and childish, and embarrassing to the great people who follow and support the University of Alabama.  I hope they punish him as harshly as possible.

Mr_Blizzard Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 AUBURN, Ala. -- Auburn University says someone deliberately poisoned trees at Toomer's Corner, where fans have long celebrated big wins and hundreds gathered after the Tigers won the football national championship on Jan. 10. Â The university said in a statement Wednesday that a herbicide commonly used to kill trees was applied "in lethal amounts" to the soil around the two trees, and that they likely can't be saved. Â It's really sad. Over a game . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah some spray paint on Saban's lake house is the same as killing the Toomer's trees and calling Finebaum to brag about it.  <edited for content> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah some spray paint on Saban's lake house is the same as killing the Toomer's trees and calling Finebaum to brag about it. Â Â i think his only point was that neither was committed by the university, so why should either university issue a statement? Â i didnt notice him really rationalizing it. Â Â Â on the topic though, i do think its sad beyond the "loss of life" silliness thats going on. its sad because it is, like auburn or not, a tradition getting ruined by one guy who just couldnt stand other people having fun if he wasnt. the fact that it was an awesome work of nature being spoiled, and for what? just adds to the sadness. the OMG it was a living thing that he killed - it wasnt intelligent life. come on now. this isnt like vicks dogs, or human lives. if not for the cultural significance to the community, no one would be crying for a wasted tree life. granted its a waste, but im not buying that angle from most of you - just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 "It is understandable to feel outrage in reaction to a malicious act of vandalism," Auburn president Jay Gogue said in a statement. "However, we should live up to the example we set in becoming national champions and the beliefs expressed in our Auburn Creed. Individuals act alone, not on behalf of anyone or any place, and all universities are vulnerable to and condemn such reprehensible acts." Â Any university in this country can have a fan or supporter that goes beyond what normal people would consider reasonable," Gouge said. "I've had the chance to talk with folks at the University of Alabama. They had nothing whatsoever to do with it. I know them and they're good people. I'm sure they're disappointed."
