He never posted it. His thumb was over the lens.

The astute FBI agent immediately apprehended the perp.

wasn’t michael moore in attendance ?

[seawolf101]

Yup, the FBI always gets the thumb.

Well, the earliest (14 Century) story has a muzzie doing it in protest of a competing religion.

Compare that story to the Taliban destroying statues of Buddha the late 1990s/early 2000s.

People suck.

[stylin19a]

I wonder if he hid it in his socks ?

Wrap this moron up real pretty and take him and the thumb as a gift to the Chinese embassy with the country’s apology.

What he said.

We are giving him up, but you have to take GS as well.

I swear, if a nuclear bomb was dropped, some idiot would take a selfie with the mushroom cloud in the background and would be trying to post the picture to Instagram when the radiation took out his WiFi.

What an a-hole. I hope they prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.

[minnesota_bound]

Bury him with the other statues and see how he likes it 2,000 years from now when some party goer breaks off his thumb!

[ontap]

Actually it is quite a mystery!!
