Man shoots computer in Colorado Springs alley, gets revenge he wanted - and a citation When ctrl + alt + delete doesn't work, just shoot the darn thing That's what one man did on Monday night, according to Colorado Springs police. Lucas Hinch, 37, was cited for discharging a weapon within city limits after he took the fight with his computer outside and got the revenge most of us only dream about. |

I really think the guy did it in kinda a humorous mood, rather than in a fit of anger... I mean, he did cart it outside, and not shoot it in his living room as some mom did to her TV a bit ago. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
