So let me back up a few steps and give a quick background for those who weren’t around when this went down a few months ago. Angered by the reveal of sentinel technology designed specifically to thwart mutants, Erik decided that it would be weak and foolish to allow human authority that success unchallenged. He wanted to destroy them. Not over the course of months or years - but immediately, he wanted to go out and blow one up to make it clear that they were not invincible and that he did not intend to lie down and let men in giant plastic suits force him or any other mutant into ANYTHING.
