Born in 1872, Andrew did not attain any type of criminal infamy until 1927, when he was already 55 years old, genuinely elderly if you consider the shortened lifespans of the early 20th century. And yet his rage had been simmering for decades. Growing up with 12 other siblings, Andrew's biological mother died when he was just a toddler. His daddy remarried, but Andrew did not have a pleasant relationship with her, they fought. One day in 1886, when Andrew was just 14 years old, his stepmother's stove exploded. She was set on fire. Andrew calmly stood and watched her burn for a few minutes before finally, after she was nearly dead, half-heartedly throwing some water on her. She did later die of her burn injuries, and we can legitimately speculate that Andrew may have deliberately tampered with the stove in such a way as to cause the explosion, although no concrete proof to that effect was then established, or can be established now. Settling down in the state of Michigan, Andrew gained a reputation for being just the slightest bit odd in his mannerisms and behaviors, but never enough to seriously worry anyone. Like so many enraged humans, he did, just as society encourages it's victims to do, target animals, morally superior animals, for the cathartic transfer of his suppressed rage, in one incident beating a horse to death. Andrew won a seat on the city school board in 1926, and tried to get taxes lowered, which was not a very popular position back then, since american societal leaders had convinced most people that lots of taxes had to paid so that america could continue to grow, expand, increase it's technological and educational systems and structures, etc... The local politicians voted to build a new school, and of course Andrew, being a resident and property owner in the area, was ordered to pay extra taxes in order to fund this new school, despite the fact that he had no children, was not interested in the education of children, and wanted to simply retain the financial assets that he had legally earned and legally possessed. But of course that was not possible. Andrew was not free, Andrew was a citizen-slave of america, Andrew was obligated to allow his fascist, insanely capitalistic society, to legally rob him of his own money, to pay for something he could never use and had no interest in, the building of a school. Still a member of the local school board, Andrew was assigned the task of performing maintenance chores on this newly built school, the building of which resulted in the legal theft via taxation of his very own money. That's when Andrew hatched his scheme of vengeance.

He carefully stockpiled over a ton of explosives and dynamite, then slowly began to transfer the explosives from his farmhouse to the school. He carefully ran wires all throughout the school, connecting them together and with the explosives, in such a way as to destroy the building. He ran several thousand feet of wire and when all was said and done, had over 1000 pounds of explosives secretly hidden throughout the building. At the same time, he also wired up his house to explode and be destroyed. On May 17, 1927, Andrew killed his long-time wife, bashing in her skull. The very next day, May 18, 1927, a beautiful, warm spring day, Andrew carried out his uniquely infamous killing spree, carefully waiting until just before 9 AM, soon after all the children had arrived at the school, to detonate the 1000 pounds of dynamite he had hidden in the building. Simultaneously, Andrew also blew up his home and farm, telling neighbors who heard the explosion at his home, "Boys, you are my friends. You better get out of here. You better go down to the school." Half of the very large school building was completely destroyed, but Andrew was not yet finished. About 30 minutes after the school exploded, Andrew drove up to the collapsed building in a truck filled with even more explosives. He called over the school superintendent to the truck, then fired a rifle directly into the pile of dynamite he had inside the truck, causing yet another massive explosion that killed the school superintendent, the city postmaster, as well as, tragically, Andrew himself. Nobody even knew at that point, that Andrew was the mastermind of this remarkable rampage. Fears that a foreign military power had invaded america, swept through the city. The exact murder toll that Andrew claimed is still not 100% certain, as far as I can tell. We know that 38 children and seven teachers at the school were killed, 61 other people were severely wounded. But this does not, apparently, take into account Andrew's wife, the city postmaster, the school superintendent, etc... Days later the official murder toll was put at 45. As you would expect, and as would be the case today, society and the media showed absolutely no ability or interest in analyzing the Truths of Andrew's life, the sources of his rage, in any type of manner. Instead, all the newspapers ran demonizing headlines, such as "Maniac blows up school, kills 42, mostly children." In perhaps the most fascinating detail of all, a detail which shows just how much remarkably astute insight into the True nature of humanity this "maniac" had, We now know that before carrying out this rampage, Andrew very carefully carved out a wooden sign, and carefully placed the sign on a fence at the perimeter of his property, clearly not wanting this sign to be destroyed in the explosions. It was a short message, in all capital letters, and it read: "CRIMINALS ARE MADE, NOT BORN." Yes indeed, those 5 words were Andrew's last words to the human race. This was the message that he felt was the most important, valuable, and Truthful message that he could leave to the world, to the human race, as his eternal legacy. And what a remarkable message of Truth it is! An enduring message, an eternal message, absolutely brilliant in it's clarity and insight. Five small words, that's all that Andrew needed. This message is utterly brilliant. It truly is an eternal, Forbidden Truth. It is just as True today, as we approach the end of the year 2001, as it was in the spring of 1927, when Andrew most likely created it.
