I put it in quotes because I didn't have a better word. If it's a public park and I walk in with turf cutter, and take all the grass for my own yard, that's clearly stealing from everyone.
How much can I take from a public forest without it being stealing? Can I cut down 1 tree for firewood? 10? How much foraging can I do before local wildlife is affected?
I don't expect that one single family to be foraging that much to a point where the local wildlife is affected.
Which is why I specifically said if everyone did it it would be a problem.
And I agreed with you.
