When we talk about wildin, we must always consider extremes. The true wilder thrives on pushing the envelope, breaking boundaries, and stretching the limits of what is acceptable in our society. A wilder is not always the anarcho-delinquent slurring "Screw the system" rhetoric while launching a recently emptied bottle of Jim Beam across the street. We have also seen wildin manifested in the conservative self-perpetuating power of the state, particualry the state of Texas.
This time the wilders are the good old municipal servants at the New York City Parks Department. According to a ABC 7 report, a Parks officer wrote a summons to one of NYC's most hardened criminals Adorable 3 year old and apparently one of America's most wanted, Ana Stinner, got caught red-handed, or in this case, green handed, picking leaves off a tree branch...THE HORROR! . The officer on the scene leaped into action, wasting time issuing the delinquent toddler a $100 ticket for "severing a branch."
Umm... I mean...really? Somebody reign these guys in. They have nothing better to do?
Are they on the Sierra Club payroll?
But no, wait, I guess its a good thing the officer stopped Ana when he did, because we all know the determination and patience that every three old has would certainly have led Ana to de-leaf that entire tree...maybe even the entire park...maybe even the entire city!
Go eat a donut.
