Builders bulldoze one of largest Mayan pyramids in Belize

One of the oldest and most famous Mayan pyramids has been destroyed by a construction company in Belize, while digging for crushed rock for a road they were building.

They actually did.

I just read about this bullshit.

Fucking horrible.

Just.. Fuck… Why the fuck would you do that. If someone tried to bulldoze down the colosseum, that person would go to jail.

I hope all involved die a terrible death from some strange curse.

Seriously.. What the hell
