2. I think she attacked them with the "Garden Toll" because she considers
all local news readers to be hoes...

7. A small clarification should you find yourself in a similar situation.
Don't swing overhand and don't use the metal end. If the cameraman won't get off your property after being told to leave then approach the camera and give the lens a good hard poke with the sharp end of the stick. Put some wieght behind it and follow through.

It will break the lens, bust the camera, bang up the cameramans head and put him on his ass.

The only thing she did wrong was not following through with the rest of the crew and beat their asses to the ground too. Frankly, I would have called up my friends and had a stomping party had it been me.

6. I'm gonna get smacked for saying this...
...but maybe she should have used a Garden Weasel, since most Faux reporters are weasels to begin with.

17. Bottom line is that you don't have to let reporters on your
property. She went too far swinging that hoe, but she had every right to kick the news crews off her property. I'd do the same thing, but I guarantee they'd leave a lot faster for me than they did for that woman.

The media has absolutely no special rights on private property. None.
