Its no joke. The bee's might be a minor fine but tree law is real and its extremely costly.

They're going after him for lost wages so it'll be $50-100k just for that. Hiring a lawyer was smart.

Theft. Property damage. Trespassing.
Why wasn't the neighbor arrested and charged for those crimes?

Come on people, fuck! I almost never complain about bad headline gramnar, though it is rampant. It seems to be just something you have to live with these days.
The sentence has two subject/predicate pairs: "beekeeper loses," and "neighbor has." So when it comes time for the possessive pronoun "his"... who the fuck is that?
Many would say you should avoid this pronoun altogether. But if you are determined to use it, please at least make it refer to the last mentioned subject!
This story would be very different (and not much of a story at all) if the neighbor had beehives removed from the neighbor's own property, which is what the headline literally says.

Thank you, I was sitting here wondering why this was a bad thing? I would do the same thing… “get your shit off of my property”.

The irony of misspelling 'grammar' is pretty funny

Misspelling, especially when typing on a phone, is orders of magnitude less egregious than the gramner problem in the headline.

Don't fuck with a man's bees. Hope the hive owner's neighbor gets stung on his ass.
