CAPE KIWANDA, Ore. — For years and years, the sandstone pedestal on the Oregon coast was a tourist attraction, a perfect photo-op for its uncanny likeness to a duck’s bill.

So when officials found the beloved 7-foot-tall formation at Cape Kiwanda broken into a million pieces, they initially thought age and gravity had done it in.

But then a video emerged that pointed to the true culprit: Vandals. More specifically, a group of people who crossed into the roped-off area and pushed and shoved the rock until it toppled over.

Now, the search is on for the offenders.

Hillary voters who love the environment. Without doubt

The mindset of the totalitarian Left at work: We know best for what you will have crowd.

[TigersEye]

From the way it crumbled age and gravity would have done it in before long.

[Rastus]

Maybe so, but what a bunch of f***ing a******s.

[TigersEye]

It was just a rock.

It was just a rock.

Doesn't matter what the hell it was, they didn't have a right to illegally trespass and destroy something that didn't belong to them.

[ETL]

Weirdos.

[Daffynition]

These vandals run out of Trump signs to steal?

[TigersEye]

It was a very unstable rock. Obviously.

[ETL]

I read elsewhere that the guys claimed one of their friends had recently broken a leg climbing on it. Therefore, in their ignorant little minds, it had to go.

[TigersEye]

How does one trespass on public land?

[ETL]

I didn’t say anything about trespassing.

[TigersEye]

You’re only capable of responding to subjects you have remarked on before?

[Salamander]

He broke his leg climbing on it, willfully, so they “took revenge upon it”?

Losers.

[ETL]

I have no idea if it was private property or not. Why would you address the question to me when it was someone else who mentioned trespassing?

[TigersEye]

If you had read the article you would know it was in a State Park.

[ETL]

Exactly. It would be like smashing stalactites in an ancient limestone cave because you bumped your head on one.

[ETL]

So, in other words, it was OK in your opinion to destroy the popular rock formation because it was in a state park, as opposed to on private property?
