A disgusting act

[Sheldon]

It's one thing to steal a mascot's head over the weekend. Or to burn a jersey (which I always thought was stupid since you have to buy the jersey first). But this shit is way over the line. I don't care how much someone dislikes or even hates Auburn, you don't destroy heritage like that--it's more than just a tree to that school.

The silver lining is that this shows the character of a lot of Alabama fans who have shown sympathy for Auburn and recognize the boundaries of the rivalry. Just goes to show that any group has their designated whackjobs. I just hope an Auburn fan doesn't retaliate by doing something equally as wrong.

He bailed out of jail yesterday. He will do prison time, significant time, I imagine.

His children have received death threats, and are under police protection now.

A group of Bama students have raised over $22,000 in just under 3 days to help in replacing the trees.

That's not right. His children have nothing to do with this. I hate when people go too far in their righteousness.

I have been saying for a long time that bama and auburn needed to stop playing one another.
People not in the state have no clue just how nasty the rivalry is.

Totally absurd. I heard he could get up to 2 years.

I think he'll be lucky to get only 2 years.

That is just for the criminal mischief charge. He has several more charges coming, but they haven't been issued yet.

I'm guessing he goes away for at least 5 years, and that's with good-time.

They'll have to bring in a judge from New Jersey.

LOL
remember, judges go to colleges

What a complete asshole! We had something similar happen out here too....

Red staters take college sports seriously. The perp looks like he barely graduated HS though.

Am I the only person who is thinking, "It's just a fucking tree"?

No?

The thought had occurred to me as well.

It's still illegal, though.

its still disgusting to take a sports rivalry to this level

It meant a lot to AU. Toomers Corner is where they gather after a game. It is a ''tradition'' they have had for many years. They win, they ''roll'' Toomers Corner.

I hate AU...but what was done was definitely wrong.

I was just going by what Megyn Kelly said yesterday.

Whaddya expect from a fucking Nazi ? ....and a Texican to boot.
It's a wonder he didn't go to the "rolling" and open fire.

As you should.

No, you're not.

I heard about this on the radio the other day (and they even played his call bragging about it), I laughed my ass off.

A dick move, sure. But worthy of hard time? I mean shit, it's not like they were pitbulls.

It's not just the trees, it's the dosage of the chemicals he used. There are serious penalties for environmental terrorism.

I know they'll go after him for illegal chemical dumping, but everything I've read says that it poses no health risks so I can't imagine thats worth hard time either.
