Oh yeah, blow it to little pieces so the idiots can go back en mass and haul it out in their pockets to sell on Ebay!

I heard the bus was to be towed to the local Walmart parking lot. We could set up a souvenier stand if it's true...

Default hmmm....

Hmmm...you've got a point there. How about take a bulldozer and bury the thing in a gravel pit somewhere, after crushing it to about a foot tall. Better yet, cut it up for scrap and recycle the damn thing, just get it out of the woods. In a year you won't even be able to tell it was ever there.

Proof is, in the end he dies alone (hunger death)with a look of bliss in his eyes like a fakir seating on a rug of nails, muttering this incredible wisdom it took him a deadly trip to the bush to grasp : "sharing is the most important thing in life", well, too bad, he couldn't even share his own death with others, but as a masochist that made him happy (and he wasn't even conscious that in so doing he was making his family and friends unhappy, or he didn't care).
What a sad, sad self-inflated moron.
Come on, guys, even Democrats are not so moronic!

The bus is no big deal, when my son was younger we stayed in long before it became famous. It has been used as a camper for hunters for years, the fact that it is now famous is nothing but hype from those that are clueless about the wilderness.

People with the same stupid mindset that believe that the bus is some kind of "Nervana" is just a flashing light of how much they don't understand what being in the "Wild" is about.
