The disrespect for property, authority and human beings is getting more commonplace. A simple thing like a minor league baseball game can come with peril.

It’s Canada. Who cares?

Baseball equipment? String her up!

“A teenage girl is facing charges, including arson, after a baseball team’s tour bus was set on fire”. Evidently, she’s not a baseball fan. Go Mudcats!

I think the American team, who lost their bus.

Probably a $500,000 loss when you consider the cost of the bus and equipment.

Kane County Cougars
Yes, it was the American baseball team, the Kane County Cougars, that lost their bus during a series against the Winnipeg Goldeyes. The bus was set on fire early in the morning, and while no injuries were reported, two teenagers were arrested and charged with arson. The bus was a total loss, costing the company approximately $425,000.

Was it a ‘trans’ teen?

They wont be passing girls around in the back of that bus ever again.

Given that it was an American bus and a Canadian arsonist, maybe the arsonist was all stirred up by media anti-Trump hatred.

Was it a ‘trans’ teen?

Whether or not the teen has balls is not the issue. The issue is does the team still have balls?

real girl or a fubar tranny?

Has her Manifesto/Gibberish Screed been uploaded to ‘The Cloud,’ yet? ;)

So many of daddy’s little princesses have grown up to be screamin’ banshee hos. No wonder they don’t want to be mothers. They want to be criminals.

The Cougars are our local minor league team. They run a great club. We go seen them a couple times a summer.

Where was the nationality identified?

[pangaea6]

Yeah she got passed one too many times and decided no more

[JayGalt]

The purported arsonist is 15 years old.

[redfreedom]

That was my first guess.

Violent, aberrant behavior is the norm these days, and the ‘trans’ lunatics do seem to have a penchant for it. At the same time, it seems the bulk of our younger people have disconnected from reality, with the trans kick being the most dramatic example.. Years of isolation under ‘covid’ combined with the mental toxin of ‘social media’ had grave consequences, especially for young, developing minds.

[Chewbarkah]

It could be only one player, many, or none, and possibly a friend/relative of the girl was the victim, but police should be looking in that direction. I wonder if she had reported anything the authorities ignored...

There’s no arson in baseball!
