Did you ever read fellowship of the rings?

That could be Ole Man willow's relation and as Tom Bombadil said trees can be mighty mean.

the domino progression has commenced. people were killed in rivers. drain the rivers. georgia was a confederate state. change its name. horses were used to carry the soldiers. ban horses.

Really? Almost all those oaks look 300 years or older. A couple of the oak trees in Louisiana are estimated to be about 1,500 years old.

Wow. They really don't have shite better to do with their lives than worry about a tree. Pretty damn sad.

My initial thought is I can almost, almost understand why someone would want this tree down (thinking about the visual of a hanging from this same tree). But the tree didn't do anything and it's not a monument glorifying those acts (if anyone was actually hung from that exact tree, don't know how they'd know that to be certain).


Secondly, we should ban and destroy all forms of rope in the USA.
