In a mashup of the two issues (1.being lazy and 2. shooting people who come on your lawn), I submit the following for your consideration. Imagine being so lazy that you shoot people who come to cut your grass for you. :sniper::run:Ladies and gentlemen... I give you... Texas.

Similar to the above story, but even crazier:eek: if you can believe that... Also in Texas... which...well...

City's attempt to cut Texas man's grass leads to a standoff, a fire and his death, police say

TL;DR - Man won't cut grass, so city sends contractors to do it for him, the man starts shooting at the contractors, SWAT gets sent over and they ask man to come out, man refuses to come out, then shoots at SWAT, they send in a drone to locate him, he then sets his own house on fire, then is forced out when house becomes engulfed in flames, man comes out, guns a blazing and is shot by police. The End. :confused::shake:
Why are cities in texas so concerned how long you grass is? In texas the state cannot tell you not to walk around with a gun, but can tell you how to rewild your garden?

I was just joking, but this is beyond crazy. Welcome to Murica I guess.

Yep pretty much:yup:
It might be because rattle snakes etc. hide in long grass.
Nope.:nope: It's because of the 2nd Amendment. There is no Constitutionally protected right to bear long grass.
 
Barefoot is a thing here. No snakes or anything like that.

You don't see no shoes no service signs.
 
"Poast" is a type of breakfast food. No, I have not tried it.

Around here we don't need to worry about rattlesnakes. It's mice and mosquitoes that hide in long grass.
And moose!.. Although I'm thinking "hide" is not really in the repetoire of a moose. Not that they even could if they wanted to... huge, majestic bastards that they are.
