CasualObserver 3,411 #1 Posted May 29, 2014 Stumbled on this the other day, and while it predates the forum, I don't remember ever discussing it here. We all know that when we're in a dispute, feud or war with people (sometimes even neighbors and friends), it's often not the conflicting parties that are injured, but the collateral damage is more horrible. Such a case is highlighted below. Be warned... this is a bit of a troubling story. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eric857 54 #2 Posted May 29, 2014 that's ridiculous, what goes through people's heads when they do stupid things like that. especially because the reason was more than likely to kill the man but there was no need to destroy a piece of equipment that has done no harm to him and I'm sure that wheel horse would have exploded which puts everyone around in danger of shrapnel. And it would have more than likely have made the man suffer right before he died. That's horrible that someone could even thing to put other innocent people in danger just because of a feud.

Tankman 3,523 #5 Posted May 29, 2014 I sometimes feel like...........oh well..........the Murray thingy..........next door. Awful to look at, listen to, or (I don't know but guess) ride on. The poor Wheel Horse will never recover. Then again, it probably will. We all love our Stallions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,211 #6 Posted May 29, 2014 Isn't it interesting... that the make of the tractor had to be mentioned. Probably serves to drive home the severity of the crime. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
