They should let the ancestors of those who fought there guard it with the same rules of engagement.

Reminds me of the ‘quiche woke riots started with George Floyd. They were destroy9 g so many monuments they actually defaced a monument for a regiment of BLACK soldiers who fought to FREE slaves.

BLMTIFA did that….truly useful idiots of Marxism.

“ Under Stalin all pre-Bolshevik books, journals and newspapers were removed from libraries and other public arenas, and those found in possession of such literature were arrested. All references to historic Russian art, music, literature, and culture were suppressed or destroyed. From the beginning, Lenin and Stalin used the phrase “Socialist Realism” to confiscate and destroy any references to Western culture, history, or beliefs and to promote the goals and methods of the government.”

... or at least a public spanking and restitution is most definitely in order.

This is what you get when teachers, cops, and store owners can't lay a hand on a kid.

Satan is the father of chaos, and he has done his job.

Yep and all of that was OK with the deep state because it served their purpose. The perps were mostly ignored or even compensated if the local cops got too rough with them.

Compare and contrast that to the hissy fit over a few hours of far lesser mayhem on January 6, 2021, a bloody shirt they are still waving.

Yep. That was in Boston, MA, right in front of the State House. (One of my favorite monuments in Boston.)

A local American Legion found graffiti on its WW II memorial. A nightwatch was organized.

The sheriff expressed gratitude that the perpetrators, after they were caught, suffered only multiple bruises and cuts.

The graffiti ended.

Little Round Top is not as high or as steep as it was. Before historical preservationists got around to Gettysburg, it was used for tank target practice between WW1 and WW2.

I have maintained for a long time that vandalism should be dealt with in this manner:

The perp should be required to clean up his own mess and that of some others. Then, he is to be placed in a cage in a mall, our modern equivalent of the village square, for a certain period of time. While he is there, passersby may not harm him physically, but they can verbally abuse him as much as they care to.
