FIVE YEARS for setting trash on fire. Totally normal country
But did you consider "The fire became so intense that customers in the drive-through lane needed to back out of the parking lot, and the restaurant was forced to briefly close"? How can you even begin to quantify the harm caused by burning trash in a giant metal bin?
Someone had to put their car in reverse? THE HORROR 
You can make the argument that arson puts lives at risk but no they specifically cited property as the thing which made this crime so bad
The station nightclub fire footage is the worst thing I have ever seen.
...and the guy responsible only did four years. He was remorseful and it was an accident, but still. This McDonalds employee got a harsher sentence than the station nightclub fire guy.
Dude was sentenced to 15 years but got let out early because the families of the victims called for leniency due to his remorse and fully taking responsibility
Point stands
That dumpster was two days away from retirement!
"Intentionally setting a fire in an effort to shut down or damage someone else’s property is inexcusable," U.S. Attorney Steinberg said in the press release. "Joshua McGregor will have substantial time to ponder his post-prison employment options."
disgusting.
Judge McFuckFace: Watch me ruin this guy's life.
judge says Kobe after the verdict
Property has way more rights and consideration then we do 
Death, and i cannot emphasize this enough i really cannot, to America
If thoughts were audible, this entire godforsaken country would be an endless choir of Rimworld mental break sounds echoing through the valleys
Dude you turn off the camera first and don't post it on Facebook
clout brained
Why not set the restaurant on fire if he wants to set a dumpster on fire?
Unlike the booze-wizzy, he probably didn't want to hurt anybody.
If we can light up a dumpster we can light up a store
wait did he set the entire mcdonalds on fire?
