Despicable. [/quote]

Like who tf thought this was a good idea, honestly. Cruel, petty, harms the strikers physically, terrible optics, and will also end up killing the trees. Good god.[/quote]

Doubt those trees will die. They look like ficus trees, which are all over LA and have deep, invasive roots. No law againat pruning ficus. [/quote]

If those trees belong to the city/county there is. [/quote]

Was it the city or universal? Show the workers cutting the trees.[/quote]

DP. Sounds like you don't believe that NBC Universal did the cutting. Trying to get a link that will work (behind a paywall right now) but the studio has said publicly that it, not the city, pruned the trees and does so every year "before high wind season." Mmm-hmm. This is the same corporation currently resisting an LA police department request that they put up a few barriers to create a pedestrian walkway so picketers are not forced to picket in the street due to NBCU's brand new construction project at the very gates picketers were targeting.

If you think the corporations aren't playing hardball with picketers' health and safety, you're wrong. [/quote]
