Unregulated gardening has been appropriately halted in our nation's glorious capital. Fascist “phantom” gardener, Henry Doctor, took it upon himself to deface the Washington, D.C. public subway system by planting over 1,000 flowers at the Dupont Metro North Station's long time empty flower plots.

Outraged over this unregulated abuse of power, Metro authorities sent in the Gestapo metro authorities to remove the flowers after threatening Mr. Doctor with imprisonment if he attempted to water or care for the unlicensed flowers for which he planted.

Comrades. When will these pathetic individualists learn? From unregulated child labored lemonade stands, self-imposed salt application to meals, super sized BIG Gulp consumptions, to unregulated floristry, these individualists continue to thumb their noses at the central planners who work tirelessly to control regulate our daily lives. Once again another attempt to skirt government authority has been successfully put down.

Comrade El Presidente,

Here's the problem. Deep into the story the simple truth emerged: "The plants would have bloomed from August to October in a patriotic display of [highlight=#ffff00]red, white and blue[/highlight]." A display of this type could have easily offended certain persons of differing national origins, thereby causing disharmony among our diverse brothers and sisters. (not to mention those of the LGBTQIO community who consider flower arranging and selection a personal prerogative) I say, "Tear them out by the roots and prepare for shipping to the upcoming funeral of Dear Leader #2, Mandela."

Well, it's certainly nothing that hasn't been done before, comrades.

Fortunately, we now have the Gestapo appropriate People's Police response!

And I must say that Comrade Craptek has a splendid point in the colorations of the foliage.

More equal additions to a classic, ROCK! And oh how that drawing illustrates the glories of moving through government bureaucracies.

Comrades, perhaps Henry should have used the many species of Mexican glaucoma plants instead, thus promoting ancient Aztec culture to the working proles.

"The weed of crime bears bitter fruit!"

"Instead of greenery today and colors to come, the 176 flower boxes along the top stretch of the escalators at the station's north entrance now feature dirt, a few straggling stems and the occasional discarded soda can."

Finally my NEA funded art is on public display!

Who does this non-union person think he is? The International Brother/Sisterhood of Florists Local # 173567 has been doing a fine job of growing dirt in those plots for many years. This was an attempt by those Union busting Rethuglikans to conceal their hard work with flowers.

One must never screw with the IBSF Union, Capt. Mr. Doctor should be grateful that the union thugs members did not plant him somewhere.... next to Jimmy Hoffa.

"Docter, 52, has engaged in stealth gardening in public places for more than three decades. He describes his work as performance art" Perhaps if Komrade Docter attended his posies naked after drenching himself in chocolate syrup he would not only have been permitted to continue his art but would have qualified for a grant from the National Endowment of Redistributed Wealth Going To Unmarketable Art.
