Default Town evacuated after 6 million pounds of explosives were found!

I got a feeling someone is going to pay dearly for storing this much explosives illegally! Can't wait to here their excuse.

What makes it more disturbing to me is that fact that it was a blasting company that was doing this not some crazy guy.To me this is worse because they clearly cared about the dollar more than the safety or their employees and the surrounding community.6 million pounds simply siting in regular buildings if a fire where to have started it would have killed hundreds possibly.
