I laughed until I read "Police said they believe they found the couple's children -- ages 3 and 6 -- waiting in a truck near the vacant property when they arrived at the scene Saturday afternoon."

That is gonna be a shitty message to have to deliver to 2 young kids.

It's a gift to us. Now those kids will have to go to new parents and maybe they'll stand a chance of not becoming theiving bastards.

I got an email from a co-worker a while back from some picks of some guys who thought they were stealing some copper phone wire but instead where trying to steal a huge power cable. Those guys were toasted! I have the pics in an email somewhere. I'll see if I can find them.

All justice should be so swift.

This happens all the time. People are stupid.

That makes me happy.

I work in communications. These pricks will hit towers, stations, etc and rip out cabling. They'll end up making $50 on the deal, but then it costs us thousands in supplies and manpower to fix their damage. I really hope every one of them dies in the most gruesome fashion possible.

Will it be done.

[t-homo]

down in the comments people feel bad that they got electrocuted. Pussies got what they deserved, sucks about the kids though.

A few years back a major internet outage was caused by some brain donor who thought that fibreoptic cable was copper wire.

Sounds like the guy that climbed the wall on a transformer station. Power flickered enough to trigger an investigation. They sent a truck to find a burned guy with only a belt left as clothing. He died a few days later...

People are actually starting to steal reels of fiber now. Apparently they are selling them to contractors.

Question:
I found the pics of the guys who dug up a power line and got fried. The pics are pretty bad. Am i allowed to post them in News Desk or do I need to go to Dark Alley to do that?

He is probably lucky he did...

She was "like" all burnt and he was "like" all dead. Fucking hate people that say like.

Yep.

Full reels are one thing but this idjit opened up a junction point, then hacked out the fibre. I don't think that they ever caught him.
