I'm a firm believer in the rights of plants, with the exception of various species of obnoxiously invasive vines such as smilax (catbriar), honeysuckle, wild grape and wild blackberry. I have accumulated a full arsenal of devices intended specifically for the purpose of denying them their rights, but they don't seem to care. They merely thumb their little green noses at my futile attempts to control them and reassert their rights within a few days.
