This morning some dumbsh!t decides he's going to destroy our courthouse. He broke in there early this morning and poured a ton of gas all over everything. The police finally figured out a way to get into the courthouse and arrested him. If the police had gotten in there a few minutes later the guy probably would have lit it up. He probably would have killed himself doing it.

That also may have been hairbrain's intention. You know, a depressed hair brain.

I don't think that was his intention. He had a timed igniter but I don't think he'd get far away enough in time.

Oh no - what a horrible loss to the world that would be.

Not.

Wow, that doesn't happen everyday..

Sure doesn't in a town of 2500 people. I guess every town has its share of weirdos. I just hope none of the weirdos living up in the hills get any ideas.

Edit: fixed double negative

I wonder what they're going to do about the mess?

I can't imagine gasoline is all that easy to clean up?

I'd ask my step-dad what they're going to do but he's sleeping cuz he had to work a 16 hour shift. I'd imagine they'd have to clean it out and get some new desks and stuff. Gas soaked wood isn't exactly safe.
