is this pyromaniac thinking? Oh that's right, he isn't. And his crazy ass wasn't even wearing a mask. Corona might catch up to him before the cops. Ole stupid ass.

The rats will. They are starving because their dumpster homes have no food since all the restaurants are closed down. Now this psycho tries to burn down their homes. The rats of Boston are pissed and will get their revenge.

Plenty of turkeys for the rats to eat. See how one problem solves another?
