A 16-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage in connection with the felling of the 300-year-old Sycamore Gap tree in the north of England.
Officers arrested the teenager amid an outpouring of sadness over the destruction of the landmark, which has been a feature of the site at Hadrian’s Wall in Northumberland for hundreds of years. The boy is in custody and assisting officers with their inquiries, Northumbria police said on Thursday.
Locals and national park authorities said they were “struggling to see the logic” in the destruction of a sycamore which had long become “part of this area’s DNA” and had gone through thousands of changes of seasons.
The tree, believed to have been about 300 years old, was made famous when it appeared in the 1991 film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, starring Kevin Costner.

i actually didnt say we should let them do whatever they want
what im actually saying is that calling for dismembering children is dangerously unhinged, and that you are a freak

it seems like you missed this part of my comment:
easy mistake to make, its only the first half of said comment
might want to bring that up with the psychiatrist while youre there for the whole ‘i want to dismember children’ thing
As an 18 year old it was a blessing when I could finally move out. And I wanted it for years at that point.
