Cars Parked For Trump Rally Damage Headstones at Local Cemetery
ABC News Channel 20 ^ | 3-14-2016 | WICS NEWS TEAM

Parking was limited at Donald Trump's event in Bloomington on Sunday. Some attendees parked at the nearby East Lawn Memorial Gardens.

Their cars tore up turf and damaged several graves and headstones.

A photo was shared on our Facebook page, posted by the Illinois Association of Firefighters. As you can see, many headstones have tire marks over them.

Employees at the cemetery tell us that many firefighters and community members came by yesterday to help repair the damage left behind.

Never seen a cemetery where one could just drive up on the lawn and park over graves without intentionally driving up on the lawn and parking over graves. Something tells me there was some friendly DNC workers who were guiding people to a handy place to park.

Hillary won’t have this problem because nobody goes to her events.

Sheesh. Sorry, send an invoice.

Ever been to a Tea Party or Republican rally? It looks better than before they came.

This would only be acceptable if there were pictures of cars with Trump stickers on the back (even then suspicious) tearing up the country side.

Either that, or everyone in the graveyard is out voting for her.

Avoid all the controversy. Write in this name when you vote.

Of course. The Trumpsters would never do that. < /s>

It actually looks very nice.

I wasn’t doubting this story a bit until your post. If there was one car there with a Trump sticker it would have been displayed prominently.

And patriots respect cemeteries. Left wingers don’t.

“And patriots respect cemeteries. Left wingers don’t.”

There would be a hundred pics if there was a single Trump sticker or someone coming out with a red hat on. Furthermore, if you go to the FB page and look at the pics, there is just this one. Not minimizing it, but, really? This one picture? They don’t have ANY pictures that show “torn up lawns” or any other such. This is disgusting.

So Trump was out there directing traffic telling people where to park.
I thought all he did was talk and beat people up. /sar

It very well could have been caused by a hearse at a funeral. There was a person here in Houston complaining about tire tracks over her relative’s grave at the National Cemetery. Turned out to be the maintenance workers.
