If this is the future of vandalism and criminality, I say we let it be normalized yesterday. Not much of a "violation of others" to put some planters down in a lots that's had nothing but litter blowing through it for 2+ years, and a "violation" that's quite easily reconciled if the owner wants to remediate it.
I find it just as much of a violation - a much more egregious violation - to let land go to shit in areas where people live, unmanaged and blighted, with no regard for the people that actually inhabit that space. No, I'm not making a legal argument in a court of law here.
- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoI think the right way to do it is to first advocate for a change in the law, and not just violate someone’s private property.
- HelloMcFly 2y agoJust put some planters down and leave contact info. If someone wants them removed, pick them up. We're not talking about taking a backhoe to someone's manicured lawn.
- pvaldes 2y ago> If this is the future of vandalism and criminality, I say we let it be normalized yesterday. Would be vandalism if I hit somebody's with a bat in their back?. And if I destroy their back seeding kudzu in their home, for them to remove it for the rest of their lives? What If I seed flowering thistle?. Seed bombs are a moronic trend from people without gardens that are playing to be gardeners, without a clue of the responsibility of keeping a collection of life beings.
- HelloMcFly 2y agoI haven't said a thing about "seed bombs" - your strawman argument where people are maliciously planting the least desirable invasives is a bit different than neighborhood residents putting native wildflower seed in unmanaged dirt patches.
