808,
So you support the practice of cutting down a mature tree for it's seeds?
Did you know that even without the skills to harvest them, they will eventually drop to you?
I'm not sure you will find much support in all of Polynesia for agriculture this
progressive.

@Greg what are you talking about. This thread is silly, no facts, nothing, zero, just some "letter to the editor" about someone cutting down coconut trees. nobody knows anything, yet have alleged "brutal theivery" thats silly. people like you are hypocrites, how can you know the intentions of the person cutting the "alleged trees" how can you know the needs or desires. You didnt own that tree. Is your house made from wood? do you wipe your a$$ with toilet paper? then give me a break....

1. not illegal
2. not illegal
3. theft is alleged with a complaint, who is complaining.

Well I'm going to have to agree with you there 808;
Slothfulness and Cultural Insensitivity are indeed legal. You certainly win the point here.

Cutting down fruit trees to get at the fruit, which does happen sometimes, is plain stupidity.
Surely even you can see that.

Yes; and also that it's not theft if the owner doesn't know about it.
