Sycamore Gap tree felled | Man in his 60s also arrested

[SWP's back]

The thought crossed my mind that it was some kind of protest. Perhaps the local council had chopped down trees where the lad lived and he was far from happy about it.

Just a shot in the dark on my part.

A shot in the dark is what the fucker needs.

I was surprised too.

I guess there's a difference between felling a tree safely and felling it maliciously

It was the fact that it looked like a clean cut that made me suspect it involved someone experienced.

Tree gets cut down. Headline news, last night. Social media goes crazy. 21 pages on here. People have changed their facebook pics to display a tree. Something that was previous adopted for a massacre in Paris.

Meanwhile, a kid dies in Rochdale because his room is filled with Black Mold. No national news outcry, nothing on social media. Not one mention of it on Blue moon.

What's not true?

The kid dying has been national news several times , you are obviously not paying attention . As for the tree, it is not just a tree, it is history , you dont get it so i am out

Jeez,how many belly buttons has that bloke got?

Maybe the 16 year old is a patsy. Lesser charges and all that.

At 16 you're not a "kid".

You know full well what's right and what's wrong by that age.

You understand the concept of right and wrong, and learn what falls into either side, as a toddler.

Can anyone hazard a guess as to the sentencing handed down to said Patsy on the day of his atonement.

Quite right that there's no minimum age of prosecution in the USA. We should certainly follow suit.
