I want to know how someone who seems legitimately crazy managed to have a full career as a TX state trooper? Maybe the distance away from Alabama kept the psychoticness under wraps. His alibi seems to be as drenched in ******** as the trees are in herbicide.
where you can go to prison for killing a tree and a salamander but not a baby<div>
</div><div>Dude is crazy and should have pay to have the trees replace, and each weekend clean up the highway trash headed to Auburn for the next 5 years</div><div>
</div><div>sending him to prison is just an another abuse of the legal system</div>

different personalities. It is about experiencing manic (bipolar 1) or hypomanic (bipolar 2) episodes and major depressive episodes. These symptoms are contained within one personality. You are probably searching for Dissociative Identity Disorder, formerly called multiple personalities.

"You can listen to it for four hours, and there are all these little
innuendos in the shorthand of people who are familiar with minutiae, and
when it's over, you don't really remember any specifics, only that
you're pissed."

He is saying that Updyke is a good person in general, but his obsession with Alabama football has led him to create an alternate persona- "Al from Dadeville", and that obsession is what caused him to kill the trees at Toomer's Corner. Al from Dadeville is the "bad side" of Updyke, an otherwise "good" person.
I'm not sure that there is a diagnosis for someone that is obsessed to the point where they spend 18 hours a day doing something to the point that it affects their life adversely. If there is, it's certainly not bipolar disorder. But, there is without a doubt something psychologically wrong with Updyke.
What he did would be like me as a Cardinals fan killing the ivy at Wrigley Field and expecting Cardinals nation to glorify me for doing it. He is almost a vigilante in his mind- he can't understand why his Alabama brethern have disowned him- talking about how "hurt he was that Nick Saban sent money to help Auburn out with the trees."
Maybe if he researched the consequences for killing those trees, he wouldn't have done it.

Dude ruined a tradition and deserves to spend a few years in jail and get his *** kicked.<div>
</div><div>You cannot let people start engaging in this type of activity--you have to punish it. These are more than just trees and the fact that we are even talking about it is proof that it's important. Act of complete selfishness and hate.</div>

But don't make the punishment a standard. There's a difference between chopping down a pine tree and a sequoia. I would prefer to let a large jury decide (but, to be fair, I would generally prefer harsher punishment for all major crimes).<div>
</div><div>But I'm guessing you're pointing out how difficult it is to determine crime. I'm not sure how you make it fair. </div>

...picking up trash and scrubbing shitters at Jordan-Hare Stadium would be appropriate in my book, along with financial restitution.
...created by Updyke then I would say-- asmessage board poster-- thathis condition wouldbeclassified asObsessive Compulsive with signs of dementia.
I don't think that he deserves prison time, by any means. He does, however, deserve some severe fines as well as hours upon hoursof community service topped with 5-10 years probation.
He killed some trees. If this happenedsomewhere else, somewhere other than a public university,other than at Auburn University would he still be facing serious prison time? Or would it be reduced to fines, probation and community service and the like?
