CAN YOU SAY RESIDENTIAL LANDSCAPE TERRORISM?

Rand Paul, Landscape Terrorist
Tackled by Local Hero
Landscape terrorism, notoriously under-reported worldwide, is a serious menace, especially in gated, planned communities.

It can start by thoughtlessly failing to replace a divot on the third fairway, but progress into more serious violations; leaf blowing across property lines and uncontrolled composting.

Homeowner's associations are notoriously slow on enforcement, navigating the maze of politics, influence and affluence.  

Dr. Rene Boucher
At least Dr. Rene Boucher, a neighbor for 17 years to Senator Rand Paul, did something about it, exercising his assumed right of a citizen's arrest, tackling the senator, who was taunting Boucher by mowing the edge of his property with a Toro riding mower while listening to convervative guitarist Ted Nugent on his headphones.

Rand was hospitalized briefly, suffering 5 broken ribs and facial lacerations.  

Boucher posted a $7,500 bond.

Both men resume the good life in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
