    Also, this photo just screams "Reno 911."

    That's so true. Here at my HS in Maine, that was definitely what the parking lot looked like.

    I bet those tree crews cutting on the power line right of way run into a bunch of people who are pizzed that they are cutting on their property, musta been a knee jerk reaction.

    This seems ironic to me. The crews that clear right of ways around here are usually the roughest bunch of dudes you'll ever see. I'm surprised they got worked up by a gun and didn't ask the dude if they could check it out.

    I'm guessing that has MUCH to do with it. Guy came out, yells at them... Probably was upset. "Get off my lawn" attitude. Maybe was at a distance?
    Far enough that the tat may have looked real enough.

    Can't exactly blame him, its tough sleeping in the day, then to have folks running saws, chipper, etc..
    MANY power companies don't let homeowners know in advance either. Technically don't have to in most ROW situations, but it would be nice to have a heads up!
