This is actually real. Story of the Killdozer
June 4, 2004
When Marvin Heemeyer of Granby, Colorado, reached a dead-end in his fight with the local zoning commission, the logical response would have been to petition them once again and await a future reply from them. After all, Marvin Heemeyer was known to have been a logical man, so it was expected that he would have taken a logical approach.
Instead, Marvin Heemeyer went home, outfitted his Komatsu D355A bulldozer with armored plates, a layer of concrete, and bulletproof plastic, and drove it through the town in a rampage, knocking down 13 buildings and causing $7 million worth of damage with his makeshift “killdozer.”
Sometimes reasonable men must do unreasonable things.
I wonder how long it took the town government to reject another citizen's rezoning proposal after this event?
I don't think this guy was being reasonable
That was a quote from his manifesto.
This account is much different than the one I read back closer to when it happened. There's no way to know what's real anymore.
