Reply to comment by AdUnfair1643 in 2 Arrested In Power Substation Vandalism In Washington State by JGfromtheNW

Where does it say that?

"According to the complaint, Greenwood told investigators after his arrest that the two knocked out power so they could burglarize a business and steal from the cash register. The business was not identified in the complaint."

The motive appears to be burglary.

The article also said:

> the first and fourth attacks were separated by over twelve hours

Seems they had plenty of time to go burglarize, but instead came back to attack another power station.

Maybe the first one didn’t knock out power to the business so they went for a second one?

The first 3 attacks happened in a cluster on Christmas morning.

Then the 4th and final attack happened much later that evening.

So they waited all day and then went and attacked another power station?

I didn’t say they were smart. I really want to know why they waited so long as well.

It doesn’t take that long to confirm you knocked out power.

Their cover story says that. I don’t believe any of this on face value. I want a hearing in court with both sides to present. Then I can judge.

"Burglary."

Yeah, sure, just going to slip an electrical substation into my knapsack and sneak away in the night. Hope nobody notices!

Lol you fucking ass clown, I didn’t say they did it because they’re neo nazis.

They did it AND they’re linked to white supremacy groups while being from Puyallup.

You’re quick fucking jump to that conclusion arent you

Dude chill. I think they were just wondering where the article said anything about white supremacy. Usually that would be mentioned with the motive but it wasn't.

Got links? I tried and figured they’re the ones in Spanaway and Parkland, but pretty empty to the public.

Smoke and mirrors. People in here are bad about making wild claims and not following up. The original story had dozens of people blaming right-wing groups. It reeked of bot manipulation and conspiracy theories.
