    The kid who burned 48,000 acres of the Columbia River Gorge that cost over 20 million dollars to put out was only charged with a misdemeanor and given 5 yrs probation plus community service. He's lucky the court didn't release his name.

    Drew, I'm really pissed about that! It is a mess up there. It will take years to restore what this fool did. What about the parents? Hell, he destroyed an amazing place. I say lock him up. Yes I'm still pissed about it.People need to be held accountable for their actions.Period.

    AMEN... the idea that people can destroy property, get caught and - basically walk away is the stupidest concept. The clown who burned the bridge on I85 in Atlanta is damn near hailed as a "folk hero" because he was a homeless drug-addict. Figure that one out!
