A woman in Colorado has been arrested after police caught her with expIosives at a TesIa dealership, police said.
The 40-year-old suspect, Lucy Grace Nelson, was arrested on Monday after the Loveland Police Department launched an “extensive investigation” following a series of vandaIizations at the dealership in Loveland, Colorado.
Isn’t this exactly what negotiating with labor unions so workers have good quality of life was made to prevent?
More Americans will become terrorists, and it’s no surprise. They have nothing to loose.
Are you saying that she is/was a Tesla employee?
No
More Americans will become

At first glance, from the thumbnail… I thought it was Christine Weston Chandler.
What a twist that would have been.
Damn, sonichu just got HARDCORE!
Ok, I need to explain this to people, but don’t blow up or damage Tesla’s at dealerships. Aside from the usual about being socially responsible, the dealers and Tesla loses money when cars can’t sell and are stuck on lots. Tesla can’t sell a dealership a new car if the dealership can’t sell a car and make space for a new one on their lot. But if you blow up or damage the cars, the dealership just claims from their insurance, they get the money as though they just sold a car, and they have lot vacancies, so Tesla can sell the dealership more stock.
Let the swasticars just sit there and depreciate on the dealership floor. That’s the real way to fuck em.
People don’t want to fly planes because they’re falling out of the sky. A Tesla dealership explosion would’ve done some significant PR damage, and may keep people from visiting them.
But, you’re right, it seems like Tesla is collapsing on its own without the need of terrorist attacks. But, the nonviolent Tesla graffiti is funny though.
TBF insurers could start denying coverage if it becomes an obvious concern: and it very clearly is.
If you get rid of the building only though and not the cars, that’s double damage.
Tesla only does direct sales, no dealerships. Otherwise, point taken. Carry on.
Why does the title literally say “Tesla dealership”?
Because that’s what the author is used to calling a place that sells cars.
Well, some dealerships should be blown up to ensure that all of them have insurance and that insurance is expensive.
And if Tesla dealerships are significantly higher risk their insurance will go through the roof.
To all the pearl clutchers, it was Molotov cocktails and graffiti, not IEDs. She was vandalizing the dealership.
Wow - great way to help our cause!
All that’s going to do is make some insurance companies more money. If she’s gonna throw her life away she should’ve just gone after Elon lmao
And upgraded to federal charges. Kash Patel is spending government resources on this for his partisan buddy instead of rightwing extremists and insurrectionists.
A potential 20 year sentence! For $5,000 in damages to luxury vehicles.
She used molotov cocktails and only did $5,000 in damage? I was really expecting to hear a few hundred Gs based on tesla’s prices and the cars I’ve seen go up in flames in the past.
Meanwhile, the J6 terrorists are pardoned.
Oh those mischievous 40 year old kids. I say let her go with a warning.
In the eyes of the law a Molotov cocktail carries the same penalties as a pipe bomb, both “unregistered Destructive Devices”. It’s the ATF’s bailiwick so it’s not unusual that the feds are involved, strictly speaking.

Regarding Nazi property: if it can be turned against them, better; but if not, destruction is second-best.
The loss of productivity and environmental damage of letting Nazis persist in any fashion far outweigh any value the objects hold on their own.
The most value we can extract from that trash is the message it sends as it’s burning to the ground.
So she was returning her cybertruck
Heyyyy ohhh!
Oh my god! That’s horrible!
That she got caught.
They’ve got the wrong person, this woman was with me at the time in question
that can’t be right, I swear I saw this exact person at the grocery near me, thousands of miles away from Loveland
I am also Spartacus. We are all Spartacus. It couldn’t have been her, I saw her somewhere else. I think with you.
That “reporter” should be fired for using such inflammatory language. Word play absolutely intended.
Not the hero we deserved but the hero we needed.
Not guilty.

Funny how quoting our President violates the rules against advocating violence. 🤔
I mean, on Jan 6th, he quite literally said “We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country any more.”
I got in trouble on Facebook for quoting something Trump said about crime on 5th Avenue. If it isn’t appropriate to say on Facebook, it isn’t appropriate to say on a campaign trail
Removed by mod
I agree that’s a better way to say it, but I wanted it to mirror Trump’s own words and use them against him
Funny that by quoting our current president, you got your post deleted as offensive.
I should run for office. Apparently I have what it takes.
Do it, but you’ll need to stay in character 24/7.
It was’t explosives
Nelson returned to Loveland Tesla while in possession of additional incendiary devices, along with materials attributed to vandalism
Nelson was immediately arrested and booked into the Larimer County Jail after being charged with explosives or incendiary devices use during felony, criminal mischief and criminal attempt to commit a Class 3 felony, authorities said.
Perhaps the law lumps them together as the same thing?
It does, but saying they got caught with a bottle of lighter fluid isn’t very exciting.
Very good point. They’ve always got to find a way to make things sound more scary.
It must be just me, but I can’t see who they are claiming did it.
What a fucking idiot. Possibly killing a bunch of employees who are likely just trying to get by ain’t the way to do this…
Edit: wow, some of these comments are unhinged
It was Molotovs not pipe bombs lol. Pretty clear she intended to burn it at night when no one was there
A pyromaniac, so much better then thanks for the clarification
Great way to build sympathy for the other side…
Well, it’s very different from blowing them up in the day when people are there, like you seemed to think
If the “other side” are all as stupid as you then we don’t want the sympathy
Lmao. Enrich the insurance companies then! This was just stupid of her
Yeah, that’s not what’s going to happen, either
Once more: if your “side” is all as dumb as you then were more than fine not having your sympathy
My side? I’ve literally voted blue my entire life lol relax buddy
I think you’re confused
Yup the people working at the dealership are almost certainly just people showing up to a job. They aren’t inherently bad people and they ahpuldnt be murdered for needing to work for a living.
Strange comment - there was no attempted murder here.
Not so fun fact but when your weapon of choice is a combustable weapon you have almost no control as to whether it harms people because fires are hard to control once started.
This person rigged multiple cars with incendiary devices. They had no control as to who would get harmed if those charges went off.
Especially these days, where every grocery store is doing greedflation and every layoff is a holocaust.
“…caught trying to plant additional explosive devices”
heh, I immediately thought: “what, was she putting keys in the ignitions?”
I don’t have anything against sticking it to the man, but there are better ways to go about this.
There’s much better targets for the explosives
Like what, building your own ultra fast kamakaze drone and going after a terrorist?
Regular drones would work just fine.
On an unrelated note: isn’t it funny that the guy tracking @elonsjet is on mastadon!
I ain’t saying that’s a viable alternative
But it’s probably more fun
Great idea, let’s kill innocent workers
Dealerships aren’t open 24/7. Who said she was planning to kill people?
This one has been involved in multiple incidents seemingly involving her. They also apparently have a security guard so non zero chance someone was working graveyard shift.
Those protecting the owner class don’t count.
Night guards are there to protect the product not because it’s a weird 24 hour dealership.
I’m with you on this one. Elon’s a piece of shit but I feel like the Tesla hate is a bit misplaced. Not that I would drive one.
I own a Tesla (2018). Elon is the brand. CT is very much his napkin design made real. He’s fired everyone that pushes back on him and runs the company as a vanity project.
The hate is not misplaced, until Elon is removed as the CEO I’ll not own another one. Even though I think they are some of the better evs on the market.
It’s literally what gives him his power. If he didn’t own such a large portion of Tesla, he’d not have been able to buy his way into looting our government
why? tesla still represents the core of his wealth and once you’ve driven one, it’s also a ketamine trip into musky’s mind.
