Addressing the jury prior to their deliberations the Judge said that Jones had no right of foraging under any ancient law despite her claims to the contrary. Returning to court in the afternoon Sionad Jones said she was prepared to desist from cutting and taking woods from the plantation next to her house.Judge O’Donnabhain said the court couldn’t be used as a “political platform.”The court heard of Jones 18 previous convictions which were mainly for minor drug possession.Judge Donnabhain said “we heard all about Mother Earth” but insisted that image didn’t tie in with someone using a chainsaw and cutting trees.

Pretty based, removing the non natives from Ireland. One. Tree. At a time.
When the government loves you, your not really and environmentalist. But, when the government threatens you with prison you just might be.
