The suspect accused of deliberately setting the fire that destroyed Chico’s historic Bidwell Mansion last month was arraigned in a Butte County courtroom yesterday. Officials alleged in an afternoon press conference that Kevin Carlson, 30, was motivated by “left-wing” and “anti-colonialism” politics in targeting the 156-year-old landmark for arson, scouting it multiple times before the blaze.

Media said the EV truck bomb guy was “a Trump supporter” and “a military veteran.” So news can proceed.
A very left-wing suspect now?
That story is going to a silent, cold, dark place.

Damn it, that brings tears to my eyes. It was a magnificent mansion with enormous historical significance. I hope this bastard dies in prison.

Didn’t know there was such a word as “left-wing”. Never seen it in print before. All the brain washing that’s gone on for the last 75 years makes it hard to wrap my brain around something so strange. I thought there was only “right-wing”. Never knew anything else could exist. Just wow.

Kevin Carlson, 30, was motivated by “left-wing” and “anti-colonialism” politics Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the press uses quotation marks when they say someone is "right-wing".
