something to hide behind

Yeah, but when you're kneeling down to pack in the dirt, it makes it easier for them to sneak up behind you and shoot you in the head, so it's kind of a wash.

The Hill notes the CDC study shows that firearm homicides were especially prevalent among black boys and young men “between the ages of 10-24.” The rate of firearm homicides for that group was “21.6 times higher than white males of the same age.”

Wow... It took a study costing who-knows-how-much for the CDC to figure out what everyone on the planet has known for decades.

How about we plant more violent thugs instead of trees...

Especially if you plant a gangbanger under each one to fertilize the tree.

The title 'official' lets you know the person is full *hit, knows nothing about anything, and most likely is a bureaucratic communist.

Seriously though, I'll volunteer to let them start with my yard. I need 4 acres of white oaks, red cherry and pecan planted. There will be no gang banging going on at this place.
