We're not going to get anywhere near a lifetime of work out of this punk. He probably won't see the outside world for another 20 years or more.
Which is just fine with me.
I hope they drove him to jail in an SUV.
The cheapest Hummer available, the H2, has a base price of $52,000. No doubt many of them had options that pushed them over $60,000. At the base price, the damage would be a tad over $1 million.
The story also said a parts warehouse was gutted. Let's conservatively guesstimate the value of the building at about $200,000 and the destroyed parts at somewhere around $100,000.
Then, there were 20 other Chevy Tahoes and Hummers that were signifigantly damaged.
All together, this probably adds another $500,000 to $1 million to the total damage.
...THIS is the pimply face of the fascist radical environmentalist movement. It's the kid you used to beat the snot out of in high school. He's mad, and he's gonna take it out on those eeeeeeeeeevil SUVs, since they don't hit back. Yup, with all of the rage in his 94 lb. frame, he's going to FIGHT pollution by torching buildings and sending billows of black smoke into the night sky, cuz America must pay for causing his pain, by goddess!
Not surprisingly, Screech here claims he was arrested without being advised of his rights or advised of the charges against him. Sure you were. Look, the cops around here are so afraid of the ACLU, they don't so much as take a piss in a public restroom without reading the urinal puck it's rights. You want your rights, Beavis? You have the right to remain stupid. If you choose to give up that right, we would appreciate it, but I'm not holding my breath.
"Like, I didn't do it," he says. "Look at the tape; the guy who did it, he's, like, wearing Nike sneakers, and I would never wear Nikes, cuz they run sweatshops overseas!" Well, there we go. Case closed, let the punk go, he's Perry freaking Mason. They've got a crystal clear shot of his face setting H2s and buildings ablaze, and he thinks his Air Jordans are gonna get him off the hook. But see, he's a good guy, since he puts down Nike's "sweatshops".
There's probably also an element of jealousy. A stupid punk like this knows he'll never get an SUV by flipping burgers. So if he can't have one, the next best thing is to destroy them so others can't have them either.
Johnny, is that you?
