Ya, I guess the police released tapes he left behind that mentioned harming people. He tried to blow up gas tanks at a plant with his .50 cal. The blast radius would have done major damage. The library had families and kids in it at the time he hit the building. One site said something like 10 of the 11 buildings had people in them moments before he hit the buildings. He also fired at police. So ya, I don't think he just had property damage on his mind. Or was so blinded by rage that he didn't think of the possible outcomes to his actions. But the tapes seem to say otherwise.

Dude was a supreme nut job.

GRANBY – God was more than just the co-pilot for Marvin Heemeyer when he got behind the controls of a bulldozer in Granby on June 4. According to Heemeyer, who mailed a rambling, repetitive recording of his thoughts to a brother beforehand, all this was God’s will.”God has prepared me to carry this cross,” he said. “I believe so, and I’m carrying this cross willingly now.” He cited several instances of divine intervention on behalf of his mission.

If this guy was in fact a reasonable person (doesn't sound like it, but who knows), and this happened today with the power of social media, it would be epic. Stream a well-worded tirade on facebook live then start taking down government buildings and tear up some lawns of gvt higherups; that video would have millions of views within the hour.

Except you have to remember, 2004 police force was a pussy fart compared to today's militarized SEAL team SWAT departments. Shit would be stopped immediately.

Doubtful. Only thing they could really do is an high powered explosive to the tracks or have someone figure out where the air intake is(in this case he probably has it routed underneath) and snuff it out.

Or EMP?

Look at how it pushed that grader right the fuck out of the way...
