>> would be a prison sentence for her
People around here say exactly the same thing about cities. Not being able to go hunting/hiking/camping/fishing. Not being able to ride a dirtbike/snowmobile. Getting a ticket if you cut down a tree in your back yard without government permission. Having to pay for parking. Having to adjust your work schedule around the mass transit schedule. People looking in through your windows. Being woken up by cop cars at all hours. They describe city life as "prison".
- epistasis 3y agoThat doesn't sound like a prison at all, it sounds like there are different tradeoffs. The closest thing to a "prison" is not being able to hunt/hike/etc. which I can assure you is simply not true and people in cities do that frequently, just with perhaps an extra hour of travel time. Being isolated in an area that depends on a car for any movement but not being able to drive actually is isolating like a a prison, however.
- sandworm101 3y agoI've lived most of my life in big cities. Unless you live in Vancouver, and even then only certain parts of such cities, hiking let alone hunting is a weekend thing at best. When I am now I have a couple guys who think it completely normal to take a few ducks on a Thursday morning before coming to work for 8am.
