Today’s Off Base column tactfully addressed the recent injunction against the stadium construction efforts. At the very least, it looks like the CalStuff term “Berkeley Ewoks” may have some staying power. My favorite part of the column:

You’ve never seen real injustice, and you’ve never really felt real hunger, searing pain, deathly thirst or anything that people—yes, people, not plants—have felt and continue to feel around the world while you sit in your tree houses (made from wood, mind you).

Before you go thinking you’ve won, look around you. You wasted your time on trees, trees that are most likely going to be cut down anyway.

And that little injunction? It was for seismic safety reasons—for people. So people could be safe. Not trees. Great job, you crusaders for truth and justice. You rule.
