Because, unfortunately, reasonable people like yourself fall prey to dummies like the guy in the article. You have to get a permit to take down an eyesore cause he's busy wacking an ecosystem. Laws like that are made to keep him in check, and everyone else is inconvienced.
A common thread on this board has been, "can you keep stupid, irresponsible people from reproducing?" Well, not yet. But we seem to have found a way to keep them from destroying land that will be around, thankfully, longer then themselves.
