Role Models

Boy Scout leaders. In Utah:

A group of Boy Scout leaders is potentially facing felony charges for destroying a rock formation nearly 200 million years old.

The trio of men was adventuring in Utah's Goblin Valley State Park when they decided to film themselves knocking over one of the formations, known as "goblins."

One man can be seen leveraging himself against a nearby rock and pushing a formation over.

"We have now modified Goblin Valley," the cameraman crows. "A new Goblin Valley exists with, uh, this boulder down here on the bottom. Muscles here pushed it off."

The three laugh, cheer and high five each other.


"Savin' lives is what we're about"? I think any rational personal would call it "vandalism."

Assholes. I hope the authorities stick them with massive fines.
