There was also the G1 Megatron cap gun he used to shoot at a picture of Adam Stackhouse, which was apparently rare (banned in the U.S. since it looked like a real gun) and worth around $300. Chris sold it to @TheRedBaron for $50 after the fire, in poor conditions.
With this particular sort of thing, I know I should probably be angry, but it makes me laugh too much. At least it's more creative than just destroying something, and it's still sort of intact afterwards, just autismified. A true cursed artifact. The lolcow of guns. And whether the person did this to deliberately troll or because they really were that massively autistic, it's funny for different reasons.
Nah that one was based. 40 year old children's toys aren't important historical artifacts.
You could argue that they are valuable.
Never name your kid after an attic.
On one hand I get your anger, on the other hand, I don't necessarily disapprove. The way I see it the blades live again, their history lives on.
That's the thing. When the offender isn't malicious, it's harder to charge them and they're also more likely to inflict more damage too. According to Cipola's basic laws of stupidity, stupid people cause more damage than criminals. While criminals benefit from commiting crimes and won't try to get themselves hurt, stupid people are unaware of the consequences of their own actions and will most likely cause collateral damage in the process. @LazarusOwenhart 's friend's university tech was both malicious and stupid, because they didn't benefit from destroying the machines.
See I think a l;ack of malicious intent is a saving grace in that the person involved hasn't set out to hurt anybody. It's stupid, but not hurtful. finding out that I wouldn't get an SGI Indigo because somebody was a cunt was much more hurtful than because they were stupid.
