1. I love how she signs off to the prison shows

Every week she seems to have some segway into "prison" lol

3. She isn't happy with the prison shows

She used to be major advocate for prison reform and those shows undercut treating prisoners humanly.

2. Why that is what I want to know.

Well I know he is a sports fan and sports fans get carried away with things...but what made his mind so warped to think of doing such a thing....destroying trees the rival team venerates.
And what process in our society makes people do such things? Did he think it would make him a great sports hero?

6. I can tell you it had HUGE press down here

Screw with our oak trees at your own peril.
Then add the "sports" angle to it..

4. Many sport teams have live mascots

and there's a tradition of rival teams taking them away.

That was what this guy had in mind. "Take away their trees".

He didn't think it through that stolen mascots are returned unharmed and it's a friendly prank. They aren't dumped out of a speeding car into the gutter with a knife in them.

There's no guarantee that new trees will be any safer unless this guy pays for his stupidity.

5. The stupid

fuck has a mean streak and most likely a brain the size of a walnut. He needs to be sentenced to life: The rest of his sorry ass life going around the South in an orange jumpsuit planting live oaks for three hots and a cot.
