  so nice to see rational takes on killdozer.

  i still see t-shirts trying to cast him as heroic or edgy or cool when the actual story plays out like a thin skinned entitled piss baby who thought the solution to petty personal grudges was a lone wolf rampage across town.

      also his rampage resulted in a construction equipment duel before he suieed, the closest thing this planet will ever see to a mech battle.

      sometimes you just gotta appreciate them as they are

        The guy was a flog, the killdozer was cool. Same as those 2 guys who made armored suits and robbed the bank leading to a 45 minute shootout in LA. Assholes sure, but ok… pretty epic at the same time.

        There are other construction vehicle battles that don’t involve dumping human shit into a dry river bed and delusions from god.

    You’re not throwing propane bombs at libraries if you’re doing some sort of “precisely targeted attack”.

  A lot of people get shit on by their neighbors. Some deserve it. Whether killdozer guy deserved it or not his response was just wrong. In the end though the only person he killed was himself.

  Agreed, he was an anger management issue on two legs.

    Marvin Heemeyer, Doomsday prepper and all round narcissistic asshat built up a catalogue of people who supposedly wronged him, in particular the city Council who sued him after he refused to pay to tie into the existing sewer network and instead dumped his waste into a ditch at the edge of his property.

    He then proceeded to customise a bulldozer and went into a rampage destroying buildings, ultimately becoming stuck and then he shot himself rather than be arrested.
