I love my father but he's always been kind of a pushover. A good family man and hard worker throughout his life, he's now very old and sometimes needs his son to stand up for him.
He lives in a high end (for the area) older neighborhood so you have a mix of mostly very nice houses with some dilapidated old homes waiting to change hands and be gutted or demolished. Next door is a home that was a rental but being rented out to spics. These spics had a contracting business and made quite a mess of the place before getting evicted.
Anyhow this home is now owned by absent investors after the previous owners gave up on renting it. I came over and saw some huge tree branches in his yard that had fallen fromthat propert into his front yard. I asked him about it he was going to get out there with his chainsaw and take care of it and haul all of this off and clean it up at the age of 74 years old.
I remembered all the times growing up needy people had gotten him to help them move stuff and do handyman stuff for them. This time I stood up for the old man. I told him if investors want to invest, they're going to invest in some fucking labor to clean this up. I hooked up straps to these huge branches and pulled all of them right into that driveway. I told him they're not helpless old people like him, they're rich assholes with money to blow on houses they don't need.

There was no "destruction". What a shame the trail of tears was not more successful.

Cause that's their money and time to spend, not mine.
You'd think an Indian wouldn't love the United States government so much. It's obviously an unoccupied dwelling with absentee owners idiot.
Good for you? That has nothing to do with this.
