Chick-fil-A Vandal Manny Castro Probed by Police

A gay Los Angeles artist who's admitted to vandalizing a local Chick-fil-A eatery is being investigated by the police.
Artist Manny Castro was so perturbed by CEO Dan Cathy's comment about gay marriage, he decided to take matters into his own hands. Castro Thursday scrawled the words "Tastes Like Hate" in huge lettering on the side of the Torrance restaurant.
To his credit, the artist came forward to identify himself as the unknown vandal, but he should at least be forced to pay restitution for the cleanup. Why should the owner foot the bill?
This week's Chick-fil-A hoopla has shown how immature Americans have become. People on both sides of the gay marriage issue completely overreacted to Cathy's remarks.
While Cathy is the CEO of a company, he is not a senator or a governor, and has no political power. If you don't like his opinions, simply don't patronize his restaurants.
But, it's pretty disgraceful to punish the local Chick-fil-A owners, and their hourly wage employees, for the actions of the CEO. They are just trying to earn a living. Castro accomplished nothing by vandalizing the local Torrance franchise.

Did the appropriately named "MANNY" come clean out of a true sense of remorse? Or to mitigate his situation knowing the heat was on? Or like most, shall we say, flambouyant homosexuals, he was merely *ATTRACTING ATTENTION TO HIMSELF*"? Perhaps this was his idea of bragging rights. IMO Make him clean up his mess, but then given the delicarte nature of these types that would be cruel and unusual punishment. Rhetorical question of the day; whould this gutless wonder vandalize a mosque the same way? Or harass a mom and pop falafel stand in Dearborn?

Forced to pay for cleanup? How about a thirty day jail sentence?

Just pretend, City of LA, that Manny smeared the business by spray painting a confederate flag on the building instead of a gay slogan.
Then giving him thirty days in the slammer will be easy.

He’ll be joining that other nitwit on the internet. They’ll both have to go into hiding for sheer embarrassment.

Isn’t that what gay marriage is all about.

Don’t look now but Castro and the national socialist left are treating Christians exactly how the NAZIs of old treated the Jews.

Manny is simply grandstanding to promote today’s art show in Chinatown.
Hope the Torrance PD pay him a little visit.

[1] In ANY case coming out of San Fran, an author should avoid the phrase, “Probed by Police”.
[2] If the guy ‘fessed up, what investigation is needed?. Get a copy of the confession, the money amount of the vandalism, pull out the old statute book, and CHARGE him!

Just a day after Julian Castro was named the Rat keynote speaker. Coincidence?
Well, probably absolutely, but 'rats is rats.
Reading the biography for this guy Castro shows him to be a real work. As to be expected, a total dirtbag who relies on shock value as opposed to true craft, artistry, and detail.
Artist Manny Castro is taking the art world and the streets of Los Angeles by storm. He is responsible for hanging thousands of Ruby Slippers over power lines throughout the city and installing oversized simulated cocaine bags on telephone poles around major intersections. Spawning mixed reactions of outrage and delight, this buzz led up to Castro's sold out "This Hollywood Life" show. As another demonstration of his knack for getting the public's attention, he caused quite a stir with his 30-by-30 foot painting of Lady Gaga depicted as Christ draped over the Hollywood hills, which Perez Hilton called "Amazeballs" on his website. Castro is also a frequent collaborator with the chart-topping pop-duo "Karmin", which features his artwork in their music video "Brokenhearted".

I disagree. We don’t respond quickly or heavily enough, that is why these sick individuals have gotten the power they try to toss around.
