Happy killdozer day

This incident wasn't the only such civil unrest here in Colorado. In 1998 in the little mountain town of Alma, CO. population of 150, a malcontent shot the mayor then used a front-end loader to destroy the water plant. Not satisfied with his performance, he stole some other equipment and rammed the fire department and several other local government buildings. The only conclusion I can come up with is the lack of oxygen at higher elevation may just have some effect on sanity. I should know as I live nearby at 9,000' elevation.

If you knew the story behind "Killdozer," you know how some petty local bureaucrats pushed a working man beyond his limits.
