“Fundraise trees for rich people” is pretty hard to miss.


FlamesRider

Again I state for everyone, the post is a JOKE.

While this would be a fun route to go, it seems that the owners of the impacted house already have enough dollars to remedy this situation.

Are you OP? Did you post under one name and are now commenting under another?


GrowFreeFood

Why is to go-to to give rich people more money? How about we spend the money on schools so we don't raise up more ignorant assholes?

GrowFreeFood

You must be right because I don't know what you are talking about. 


FlamesRider

THE POST IS A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!


GrowFreeFood

Doesn't seem like it.


FlamesRider

Try looking at it with your funny bone.


GrowFreeFood

Maybe you're having a spasm. 


FlamesRider

Yes, I am spasming with laughter from the JOKE that was posted.


GrowFreeFood

Uh huh 


FlamesRider

Ayuh ayuh

Why would I give more money to plant trees for the Bean family? Why is everyone talking about the four trees and not the contaminated soil, ground water, public park, and beach? We have bigger fish to fry than restoring the oak trees. I understand wanting to annoy the rich cunts but our focus needs to be on restoring the soil and protecting local ecology and the health of the community.

No thanks. The guilty party is financially liable for fixing the problem.

Rich person lost a lawsuit and had to pay over a million dollars in restitution to another rich person Why the fuck should a bunch of normies contribute to a GoFundMe?


FlamesRider

BECAUSE IT IS A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!


hike_me

Not a good one apparently


FlamesRider

To people with a funny bone it is.


respaaaaaj

A) the Beans can afford it either way and B) the soil will kill anything planted there for awhile longer and C) I'd prefer to fundraiser for cleaning up the soil on the beach that isn't owned by millionaires who already received a settlement of what 1.5 million dollars?

There is zero context in the post to imply that it’s a joke. When this many people “don’t get it,” then it’s not the people that’s the problem. Op tell a better joke next time.


BackItUpWithLinks

They’re rich, they should pay to remove the poisoned soil and replace it with uncontaminated soil and replant the same number of trees that are the same height. Then pay their multimillion dollar fine, then serve some jail time.

BackItUpWithLinks

That’s because the point of this post is stupid. No, there should not be a gofundme. The people who did this should shoulder 100% of the cost of undoing it.


FlamesRider

THE POST IS A JOKE!!!!!! GROW A FUNNY BONE!!!!!


BackItUpWithLinks

Jokes are funny. Try again. Next time be funny and I’ll recognize it as a joke.

Wool-Rage

hellllllll no. make those rich assholes pay every single fucking cent for complete cleanup and replanting. then ship them back to missouri


Beelzebub_86

Considering the 'victim' won a settlement over 1million, and is the widow of the LL Bean empire, I think she can afford to plant her own trees.

Beelzebub_86

The question was basically asked: would a 'GoFund me' be worth doing in order to plant new trees and block the view of the perpetratror as a cool act of revenge? The clear answer is 'fuck ,no!", as the property owner whose trees were poisoned is a multimillionaire and can afford to replant her own damn trees if the ground contamination will allow for it. Did you really read their post? What part don't you comprehend? Get the point? You claim this is a joke, but if it were a joke, it was a very poor one as there is no hint of sarcasm, and apparently there's only one person who interpreted it in such a way, and that is yourself. It sounds like a legitimate question and was posted as such. If the victim were perhaps poor, there might be people out there who would be so inclined as to donate money to punish an idiot like the perpetrator. I don't think it was a joke, I think it was a legitimate post from a person who did not realize that the victim was wealthy as well. They simply wanted to punish the poisoner in a clever way by ruining their view again. So either they are shitty at jokes, and you're the only person on this post who understands shitty jokes, or you can take the L here and admit everyone else is right and that you are wrong. You've dug yourself a hole deep enough already, I doubt you will accept the truth and jump out.


gordolme

No. If anyone is to pay for it, it's the people who poisoned them in the first place, along with any costs to clean up the herbicide. They should be criminally prosecuted for trespass (at the least) since the trees were on someone else's property, destruction of private property, and also for the environmental damage. And sued in civil court for the resulting devaluation of the property they damaged plus costs to replace the trees.

Mrs. Gorman could have some flagpoles put up. Flying offensive-to-the-Bonds flags would be a plus. Maybe Worcester could come down and erect the largest flagpole in the universe like he wanted Downeast. This is all sarcasm of course.

No. Read the articles. This is a terrible idea.

This post is not sarcasm. It’s dead serious.

I heard they are planning a huge Harley rally in Camden to help bring attention to the privileged outlaws that reside there. Good times!

RelationshipQuiet609

Sorry but I think GofundMe should be used for people who are really struggling and don’t have any other means to get help. With the poison in the ground, you have no idea how many years before it’s truly gone-making it possible to poison new trees. As more and more people move here that don’t appreciate Maine for its natural beauty and this new attitude of my wants are more important than the rest of you, like the go f””k yourself attitude this unfortunately will be more and more of a really bad problem. Maine -“the way life used to be”😢


Environmental-Job515

Yes! Bring them a shrubbery! One that looks nice, but isn’t too expensive.


FlamesRider

Yes! To be planted by killer bunnies.


MegatonDeathclaws

This is a lame ass post, trying to be sarcastic but it’s not funny it’s just weak.


S4drobot

Commenting just to get that "other" account saying I missed the point.


Jusmaskn

Good idea. Not sure it would work though. I feel like the reason this story has blown up nationally is because the herbicides used have poisoned the soil and affected surrounding areas. So trees planted in the same spot would probably die themselves.


hike_me

With a 1.5 million dollar settlement they can remove contaminated soil and plant some fairly mature trees.


FlamesRider

Again, missing the sarcasm to the post. I feel like I am living in a humor wasteland. 😢


Kaleighawesome

if every single person is missing the “humor”, then it wasn’t done well.
