Minnesota man jailed for putting up wind turbine

Do you ever look at the articles, videos and pictures before you post?

Both the people with the Solar Panels and the Turbine were not eyesores.

Looks pretty crappy to me, especially on lake shore.

What about all of those cell phone towers, putting quite a show at night?  Across most bays in the US, it's no longer a nice place to look at the stars - you have these annoying towers flashing lights everywhere across the horizon. 

Solar panels on roofs are actually cool-looking to me.  As long as they aren't on the ground, or hidden out of sight, like the wind turbine foundation which shouldn't be too big of a deal, what's such a big deal?  If it prevents the other house from selling, it's actually a BS reason - a dishonest excuse by the unhappy neighbor wanting to spread his own misery to others. 

Now, as to the 6-month jail time, wow.  Just, wow.  The judge is really lucky if he doesn't come back and put a bullet right in between the judge's eyes someday if he decides that he has nothing to lose.
