Imagine being an adult and thinking this is an acceptable thing to do. Why are there so many shitheads in the world?
Covid didn’t do enough
So we still don’t know what the motive was?
Nope, as far as I’m aware a motive hasn’t been made public. But I’m willing to chalk it up to some people just being miserable jerks.
chock it up
Chalk it up?
Are you asking me or just deliberately being a dick about a spelling mistake? Don’t answer that. It’s a rhetorical question.
Neither of the above. The question mark indicates a rising tone (common in informal speech), as a way to reduce intensity and specifically not be a dick about it. It’s a polite and friendly way of letting you know you made a fairly easy-to-understand mistake (it’s basically a mondegreen), and what the correct phrase is.
Miserable jerks are definitely way more common than they should be but cutting a tree is a lot of work. It’s hard to believe they didn’t have some kind of motive beyond just stirring up shit. Maybe we’ll find out during or after the trial.
They haven’t admitted to doing it. One plead not guilty, the other entered no plea. I doubt there will ever be a good reason given, I struggle to even imagine any justification. Sometimes humanity really acts like a virus that earth needs to get rid of 🤷♂️
Someone just ran over a fully grown tree on my street corner and I’m pissed
Edit: Oh shit! SORRY! I looked at the little picture on my phone and truly didn’t see the balaclavas until I just opened the article up on a large PC screen now!
I’ll leave up my mistake (below) as a testament to my poor eyesight.
TBH I never expected the perps to be black. It will quite interesting to unpack their motives and put it into some historical perspective regarding purposeful, inadvertent or ignorant destruction by European colonial invaders in, uh… everywhere else in the world.

Wanna know how I know you only glanced at the picture?
My little phone didn’t have the pixels to show the picture properly.
I’ve owned up to my mistake above.
And yes now that I look closer I can see their hands. Oops.
Good on you for owning the mistake. I will say that even if they were black the premise of your original argument provides no justification for what was done.
And you shall know me by the trail of monuments to my own incompetence that I leave in my wake…
Now as to my ‘argument’; it wasn’t a justification, it was more a point of relativism and curiosity.
