Comment on Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years
Tangentism@lemmy.ml 17 hours agoThe sentencing is to slow that wilful destruction of ancient trees and heritage sites will not go unpunished.
They are a pair of cunts that destroyed a beloved tree and I disagree, if they hadn’t been jailed, they would very likely do something similar again seeing as they revelled in the media attention and took keepsakes.

i both hate these pricks for killing the tree and am ideologically biased against at least one of them because he’s a petite-bourgeois scumbag and i still believe that they wouldn’t be stupid enough to do something similar again
having them perform service for the community is both cheaper, improves the community, and takes the sheen off their notoriety if they do indeed still revel in the attention prison as a punishment is backwards medieval thinking, it should be reserved purely for people who are a genuine danger to the public or are extremely likely to repeat their crime
