Some Moron is Shooting Out the Windows of Bus Shelters
When they catch the guy they should make him pay for all the damages. Then they should horse whip him for doing something so dangerous. Note to morons, bullets don’t evaporate when they hit glass. Even if the bullet itself shatters and begins to disintegrate (as lead bullets will do when hitting hard surfaces) chunks can still fly off at various trajectories and hit someone not to mention that the glass itself “spalls” and creates secondary projectiles as dangerous as the bullet.
My only wish is that a bullet ricochets off one of these shelters and hits the shooter in the man berries:

Scrappers Stealing Grave Vases in Woodruff
Bronze vases, left on the graves as a memorial by grieving loved ones, are being stolen in Woodruff by what are no doubt thieves who are lured by the promise of quick cash for scrap metal due to rising commodity prices. From Fox Carolina:
WOODRUFF, S.C. — Thieves are robbing from the dead and investigators are trying to track them down.
A manager with the Greenhaven Cemetery in Woodruff noticed several missing bronze vases and called deputies.
For family members and friends, the cemetery is a final resting place for those they love. But some bold grave robbers disturbed the grounds and ripped the vases from grave markers.
“It didn’t surprise me a whole lot,” said Jean Hunter. She said that type of low-down crime has happened before at the cemetery — to her mother’s grave. “About a year, or so, ago, her vase was stolen. They replaced it for us,” she said.
So, when she heard more thieves hit the cemetery, she got in her car and drove there.
Bronze and Brass have really been a small timer market. Bronze has usually been worth about $2/lb depending on the scrap yard and circumstance. However the primary ingredient in bronze, copper, is just retreating off 4-month highs and speculators are expecting the metal to surge in the coming months due to increased industrial demand. Scrap metal dealers may be in a buying mood for all sorts of scrap in anticipation of a run on metals by governments, industry and speculators.
Couple of Teen Idiots Get Caught on Camera Vandalizing “Art” That Tasteless Idiots Commisioned
Art is dead. Nowhere is that more apparent than the Greenville “art scene” which is predominately populated by House Frau’s who convince people their Martha Stewart inspired craft projects are art and rounded out by “professional” artists whose sculptures, paintings and poetry are so derivative and unimpaired they seem less like art and more like advertisements for the NYC art scene … circa 1992.
That fact is no excuse for vandalism, or stupidity for that matter. Two young art critics let their feelings about Greenville’s infamous “string sculpture” be known by taking a knife to it. What I suppose they didn’t know was that they were on camera at the time:
What we’re seeing is a guy trying to impress a girl by vandalizing this “sculpture” who is herself trying to impress him by dressing like a hooker from Miami Vice. He’s going to pay a hefty fine to impress a girl he could have had sex with regardless. Sad.
But not quite as sad a string sculpture.
Morons Break Into Gas Station in Front of Video Camera
The haul? 33 packs of Newports. I’ll reserve comment except to say thanks for making us look good, brother. Here’s a hint for erstwhile thieves: store owners don’t leave lights on out front because they think the building is scared of the dark, it’s so the camera can get a good look at you.
According to a incident report obtained from the Police Department, the burglary sometime Sunday night or early Monday morning at the Murphy’s Gas Station, located at 2517 Laurens Road. The report states that an employee at the convenience store came into work early Monday morning and noticed that the business had been burglarized.
Deputies and the employee reviewed the surveillance video and observed a black male and white female pull up to the door of convenience store in a black or gray Chevrolet S-10 truck. The video shows the male suspect exiting the truck and taking a tire iron and hitting the store’s door and causing the glass to shatter before entering the business.
Shameful.
