Act of terrorism

This is a direct attack on the infrastructure. This gentleman when caught should be tried as a terrorist.
Secondly Discharging a firearm in public? were children around?

Could this had been a test to see how they can take out the internet? 500 dumb asses firing shotguns into the ground at the same time?

Very possible, wouldn't be the first time there was a "test run". Unfortunately, the article doesn't say anything about the authorities catching anyone to find out.

Also possible, but again, they apparently didn't catch anyone to find out what the motivation was.

I think you're saying 20% of the population are terrorists.

All I know is I have seen plenty of roadsigns, poles, hell even power transformers that idiots have used for target practice.

I've dealt with this kind of outage before in that part of the country- in that case 3000 ft of aerial copper was destroyed by shotgun... but not because of evil intent- it was dove season and some less than sportsmanlike hunters were shooting birds off the lines.
