A Suburban Painted Pink Forest
11 February 2002 - 5:00am
Protesting a new development in the suburbs of St. Paul, MN the "Pinkville Three" have started an urban fuchsia forst.
"The self-styled "Pinkville Three" can keep their suburban forest as fuchsia as long they want it to be, but they've been told by a judge to take down offensive signs at the site... In November, the trio painted trees on their property neon colors and erected signs, including one that said "Future city boundary of Pinkville. Trespassers will be killed and eaten. Sorry, no exceptions." In the ruling, the judge also cited a more recently erected sign that read, "Stop censorship by Royal Oaks Taliban wannabes!"
