Those guys just went on strike out here. They was all pizzed cause they only make something like 85k a year.
All over the TV telling everybody to hide their kids from the scab drivers. "Those scab drivers are running over kids and hitting cars because they don't have training!!!"
Maybe he is one of them "untrained" scab trash fellas and just don't know any better?

Isn't destroying someone's mail box a federal crime?

The garbage truck driver changed the man's i-tunes to Justin Beiber. Unlikely. There was no bloodshed....

Paul B. yes, but not a felony. I've been through this before; living rural most of your life you see and receive your share of mailbox poundings (and replacements after) Mailboxes are considered federal property, and federal law (Title 18, United States Code, Section 1705), makes it a crime to vandalize them (or to injure, deface or destroy any mail deposited in them). Violators can be fined up to $250,000, or imprisoned for up to three years, for each act of vandalism.

I hate to do this to you guys but it's time to break the real story (I learned this after enjoying the video myself) Staged as an April fools joke on the garbage service boss dude. The guy in the video owns the house, the cam and the mailbox. He set the camera up and staged the rage. Then he brought the tape in to work and had one of his fellow employees bring it to the boss and tell him that a really pizze off customer dropped the tape off for him. I kind of wish I didn't know that.
Something clever here.

Ah yes, the life of the rural mail box. When I was young I remember my Dad dealing with someone who like to hook a chain to rural mail boxes and rip them out of the ground. So my Dad prepared. Steel I beam, sheathed in old wood, set in lots of concrete (he was in the concrete business). About 2 months later we found a chain and bumper attached to our mail box post.
When we lived outside of Dundee, Oregon we had a neighbor's kid who liked to ride around with his buddies and cave in the tops of large rural mail boxes with baseball bats. After replacing two mailboxes, I bought a new one and fabricated a mail box inside of it made of 1/2" steel plate with a peaked top. They hit it sometime later, but just once. Never had another problem (but the kid did go to jail after one of the neighbors shot at him as the kid was trying to steal the guys pickup).
I cannot imagine not having a locking, steel plate mailbox in this day of identity theft
