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?
More Americans will become

At first glance, from the thumbnail… I thought it was Christine Weston Chandler.
What a twist that would have been.
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.
If you get rid of the building only though and not the cars, that’s double damage.
TBF insurers could start denying coverage if it becomes an obvious concern: and it very clearly is.
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.
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.
She obviously could have just used a handheld sphere of steel
Not the hero we deserved but the hero we needed.
Bless her heart
It must be just me, but I can’t see who they are claiming did it.
That “reporter” should be fired for using such inflammatory language. Word play absolutely intended.
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
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.
Unpopular opinion inbound: Property destruction of any kind is bad, bombs or molotovs or broken windows. It represents lost productivity and unnecessary environmental damage. You are creating more demand for the same products to be reproduced for no benefit.
Theft on the other hand…
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.
And still federal charges. Kash Patel is spending government resources on this 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.
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.
Woman?
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.
Judging by her photo, the right is going to say she did this because she’s trans.
I understand the desire for protest against Musk. However, explosives by themselves are dangerous and can hurt you and others.
Further, while the lower end models of Tesla cars use a safe battery chemistry, you should know that high end models of Tesla cars and cybertruck use a chemistry of battery known as NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt). Puncturing of a fully charged NMC battery cell will result in a violent chemical reaction which can also hurt you or others as seen here. Please do not use explosives in your protests. Protest without the chance of harm to you or others.
Nice try officer.
What have peaceful protests gotten us?
so what you’re saying is that Tesla has provided their own explosives?
Are batteries that you can poke to explode really a good idea in a country with so many wireless hole pokers?
