Quantico’s Iwo Jima Memorial defaced
This ain't Hell, but you can see it from here. ^ | Dec 8, 2012 | blog

"Tuesday night, some vandals took it upon themselves to deface the Iwo Jima Memorial at Quantico Marine Base by painting a pink stripe around it. Of course, I’d blame juvenile delinquents, but the juveniles might be those wretched hags of Code Pink – you know, the pink stripe. Not that they’re not juveniles, but they are rather long in the tooth."

It's clean already but it upset someone I know and myself, so I'm sharing. The Marine Corps Times won't let us link to their site and they have a small piece on it.

Tuesday night, some vandals took it upon themselves to deface the Iwo Jima Memorial at Quantico Marine Base by painting a pink stripe around it. Of course, I’d blame juvenile delinquents, but the juveniles might be those wretched hags of Code Pink – you know, the pink stripe. Not that they’re not juveniles, but they are rather long in the tooth.

Military officials say the vandalism, a bright pink paint line around about half of the memorial’s base, happened Tuesday evening. Military police along with Prince William County police searched the area but did not find any suspects.

Of course, the Code Pinkers are upset that their latest cause, Breanna Manning, was reportedly abused while he was a prisoner at Quantico, and his treatment has been in the news this week, so it stands to reason that little cretins would do something like this and then giggle about their “action”.

Do the Pink Punks have an HQ or main office?

Call in a drone!

Perhaps it's time to stockpile appropriate anti-moonbattery resources:

PAINT, SPRAY AEROSOL;
COLOR CODE: "UTILITY GREEN"
CAN (1 ea)
CASE (12 ea.)

FOR IMMEDIATE READINESS

It's not really on the base. The gate guard shacks are about 100 yards away and the line of sight to the memorial is obscured by bushes and trees. (BTW, Quantico is a beautiful base.)
