"Phoenix school has 30 AC units destroyed"

Later in the story, we learn the school didn't
have them destroyed. Thieves destroyed them.

"Phoenix police reported three men had destroyed 30 of the school's
air-conditioning units to steal the copper coils. The price tag for
fixing
or replacing the units is $360,000, said Phoenix Police Sgt. Tommy
Thompson."

Most 'journalists' should be euthanased... posthaste.
Plenty of idiocy to go around, even on this board <gasp>. The OP said
that the "school didn't have them destroyed."  I guess he thinks that
schools can destroy things? Schools have arms and legs? Maybe it is
one of those walking, talking schools? Perhaps the school has a record
of walking around and destroying things. Fool.

Fool, a board is a piece of wood...- Hide quoted text -
