No one is debating that. It's a matter of the usual republican pattern of doing what's in their narcissistic game plan. It's all about them-them-them. There is no respect for anything other than their gratification.
For example, in my town, which is on a mountain and has a fabulous view of the NYC skyline, a resident cut down 40 trees that hindered his view of the skyline. This was back in the mid-nineties, I believe.
Then they passed an ordinance against such tree-cutting in this town and which held up for over a decade. Then another real estate developer staged a long court battle to get the tree ordinance struck down. It had to be revised.
So the point is that the landowner here was not doing anything against the law when he mowed down 40 trees for his own viewing pleasure. But what was he doing for the northeastern canopy? What about the carbon monoxide that those trees dealt with?
Not every single issue in life can be legislated, nor should it be and that is why your point about it fails on relevance.
Most assuredly, Bill O'Reilly did not think twice about what he was going to do with that property, nor did any of the other people who failed to respect the structures that were there before them.
There's a reason, you know, that many towns do not just let a McDonalds come in and build anywhere and how they would like to build.
