I agree with the fire chief.. i think it was the skater punks around fowler.. cause they cause alot of trouble through out the twon as it as... and most of them have broken into the school before so thats why i believe that they set it on fire.

They will probably find that it was started by a carelessly discarded cigarette. Whether or not it was thrown by a "skater punk" will probably never be known. I always find it amazing the number of smokers who will simply flip their cigarette away when they are done with it. Even when there is an ashtray well within reach. Add one of those to a pile of highly flammable debris, and you have a nice little fire going in no time.

And don't bother accusing me of being an "anti-smoker" or "anti-smoking nut". I am a smoker. That is my choice, but I still do so responsibly.

While I was reading this I never thought that this person was an "anti smoker" but the word "idiot" came to mind almost from the start. I read it again, yep, idiot.
