Somebody watched "the Gauntlet"...

Too bad he did himself.

I would have enjoyed both the media circus and the nice retirement behind bars...

I only want to know....

What the heck is a .23 rifle?????

Oh, and

BAN BULLDOZERS!

Do it for the Children....

I loved that movie........

.223?

I'm glad he went out with his boots on.......Alive, he would have just been another rumpled looking nut.......

Back in the '30s when the Gubment first started to try to tell farmers what and what not to plant, my Great Grandfather ran off the Gmen with his single shot 12 gauge.........I hope the genes and guts got passed along.....

He had some big brass ones for sure. Too bad it had to end like it did.

Before this one, another Coloradan did the same thing in the town of Alma about 30 miles from me after they condemned property that had been in his family over 100years.

In the case of killdozer, he would have gone a lot farther had he provided for airflow around the engine. When he got down in the basement of that building he was working it so hard it overheated and died. Then it was over. Had it not over heated he would have gotten out and continued his rampage. He also should not have driven into a building with a deep basement. Just things to remember when ypou build your own killdozer children.

From the state with not one, but 2 dozer drivers running through city hall. Woohoo.

I saw a program about this on the History channel ,I think.They portrayed him as a loner and a loose cannon .This is how I see gun owners being treated in the future . No one cares if the cops or the government take out the lone nut who collects "assault rifles" and is independent.

If ya push a man far enough.........

They REALLY have to rethink this eminent domain thing. I'm not sure it has
anything to do with this story, but I can see it being the cause of a lot more
KILLDOZERS

The company I work for once had a coal mine in Wyoming. One of many companies working the coal in that area, each company took turns doing some infrastructure improvement in town. Our turn was up and we had a big dozer (D8 or D9) in town for the work. A disgruntled employee took the dozer and went on a rampage. Even without armor, local LEO couldn't find a way to stop it. Eventually, he was defeated by a basement but this time the blade was on firm ground in front and the ripper shanks on foundation in the back with the tracks spinning in mid air. No injuries but we paid a lot of property claims. I got to play on a brand new D8 once. They are awesome machines!

Not if he did it right.

If you go out in a Firefight, it's one thing. Doing yourself is just not acceptable IMO.
