The Grand Rapids Police Department is searching for two vandals who defaced the gravesites of President Gerald R. Ford and First Lady Betty Ford at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library and Museum.

Cops released photos of the March 27 incident that shows a man and woman sitting on a wall that’s part of the memorial site. The man appears to be carving or writing something on the panels that read “Lives Committed to God, Country and Love.”

Surveillance video of the incident obtained by CBS affiliate WWMT also shows the woman kick a skateboard into the memorial wall.

I believe it’s from the 2nd episode from Better Call Saul. It’s on Netflix and a must-see episode even if you don’t watch any of the rest of them. Extremely funny. I won’t give it away.

Don’t have Netflix. BUT if you happen to know what episode (title), maybe I can find it or pieces from it. TIA

“No need to click on the pic. You guessed correctly.”

Maybe... if you guessed “white couple.” Honestly... I can’t even remember the last time I saw a black or hispanic skateboarder.

"I didn't think they were. Whose ever seen a brother on a skateboard?"

Yeah, when they said "skateboarders" I thought they would look like, well, EXACTLY like they do.

White losers.

“...Skateboarding at 19...”

I’m still skateboarding at 64. I started with a Nash Sidewalk surfboard about 52 years ago. Nowadays they have a better type of geriatric skateboard: long boards and land paddles.

But yes, we ain’t the same country that responded in December of 1941.

I think it’s funny but then I enjoy dark humor which is not for everyone.

It’s Episode 2 Mijo.

Here is an excerpt from the main scene but it might not mean much without seeing Episode 1 and most of Episode 2. It’s an skateboarder accident scam orchestrated by a sleazy lawyer that goes awry when they mistakingly try to scam a mexican drug dude’s mother.

Yeah, they are people who skateboard.

I think the word you are looking for is stereotype.

No doubt he eats with a very large silver spoon. Clueless punk will end up being someone’s VP pick.

“He’s good /s”

Hopefully he will share a lot more of his skate boarding abilities without pads or a helmet.

I used to have a ‘67 Pontiac just like the one in the background - while I lived in New Mexico! Maybe it’s the same car.
