A few more felons will be on their way to prison soon.

The construction of the WalMart will be set back, oh, about a week.

Score one for the free market. See ya in Sporting Goods.

Hmm..destroying a Wallmart isn't necessarily the deed of a leftist IMO. Although I'm sure the bots will disagree and call me a nazi and other Buchananesque terms/.

Wal-Mart is usually constructed with non-union labor. They have their own crew(s) that are experienced in Wal-Mart's particular layout(s).

My guess ... who else could know enough to jump a big machine , do the job and be out before the heat comes ... an angry, experienced heavy equipment operator.

This is not an endorsement from me for or against unions ... just an opinion.

Once it opens, these same vandals will be shopping there because it is cheaper.

I gaurantee that a $500,000 reward (from Walmart's insurance company) would lead to the arrest and conviction of the perps who had their fun.

If abortion protesters standing on the sidewalk are able to be prosecuted under the RICO act (for stopping abortion providers' business) then certainly destruction of a business (to put them out of business) should open these terrorists to asset forfeiture. DEFUND THE LEFT. How does one do a million dollars in "vandalism"? At what point is it a shoddy attempt at total destruction?

Terrorists should be shot on sight. ALL of them, towel heads or home grown.

Maybe I am being naieve here, but is there a remote chance that this wasn't TARGETED at WalMart, but just kids doing the "destructive passes as fun" thing?

I am no fan of WalMart, but around here, if you leave your construction equipment on-site, teen-agers WILL find a way to start it and joyride on it, and crashing into things is considered "fun."
