It was brought to my attention yesterday that a tree stand, which is used for hunting, was spotted in McNeilly Park. I reported that to a commissioner yesterday. I didn't contact MY commissioner due to her passion for killing deer. The police located two tree stands this morning in McNeilly Park. It was confirmed by Public Works, about an hour ago, that the tree stands have been removed. Thanks to all for your quick response concerning this matter.
Two tree stands, someone is either spotting deer, but why would you, if your not allowed to shoot a weapon in Lebo or someone is engaged in illegal hunting. Shouldn't they have tried to catch who ever own the stands?
ReplyDeleteThere several tree stands in Twin Hills Park when I visited there a number of years ago. Perhaps Scott Twp. zoning, which rules, permits such ?
ReplyDelete10:56 AM is right---Twin Hills is owned by Mt. Lebanon thanks to a stupid move by some former officials, but the land remains in Scott. Now that's scary.
ReplyDeleteElaine, your commissioner did say in the Commissioners Meeting there are guns being fired in Mt. Lebanon already.
ReplyDeleteTree stands do not kill deer; people do!
ReplyDeleteBut 1:29 tree stands do kill people!

Falls from tree stands kill 2 Mississippi Hunters
The Clarion Ledger, Jackson , MS (Monday, October 25, 2004 )
Men in separate accidents weren't wearing harnesses, officials say.
by Camille C. Spencer
Mississippi's first two hunting fatalities of the season occurred on the same day after men who weren't wearing safety harnesses fell from tree stands, officials said.
"It's the most dangerous piece of equipment a hunter can use," said Major Steve Adcock of the state Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. "We have more injuries with tree stands every year than anything else. If you climb a tree enough, you're going to fall, if you don't wear a harness."
At least someone found a use for McNeilly Park!
ReplyDeleteI confess, I put them up. I've tried everything else to find an actual conservative in Lebo...
ReplyDeleteGee maybe The republican cmmittee could learn something from the deer issue.
ReplyDeleteSpecies flourish where they find the things they like to live on. For republicans it's the Republican Principals like smaller government and fewer taxes.
Sorry James, but conservative republicans in Mt. Lebanon are an endangered species so it'll be hard to find any. Think they all left for USC and the North Hills.
I figured something was up when kept seeing RINOs traipsing through the woods.

Thanks for the conservapedia link, whom do you think fits the description?
ReplyDelete"A RINO (Republican in Name Only) is an officeholder or candidate who is a member of the Republican Party, but holds views to the political left of most Republican voters. The term "RINO" describes politicians who claim to be Republican but are in fact liberal, and therefore generally debase the winning conservative coalition base of the Republican Party.
RINOs are often Republican only to the extent it serves their own interests, and will abandon conservative principles as soon as it is in their own interests to do so. RINOs often provide support for raising taxes, abortion as a right, gay rights and gun control. Some RINOs have connections with Planned Parenthood or corporations that support goals of population control; other RINOs pay lip service to pro-life values while in practice not advancing those values."
There is a geocache in McNeilly park:
