Republicans Targeted By Vandals

The Escambia County Republican Headquarters Office has been vandalized for a fourth time.

The latest attack came Saturday morning when 3 windows were shattered. The Republicans say earlier in the week they discovered several paint balls had hit the building.

They add the acts of vandalism are rampant throughout the community.

"We had a report, several people had come into our office, who had been responsible for placing signs along various streets and they came back the very next day and said all the signs were gone," said Allen Levy, a member of the Escambia County Republicans.

The Escambia County Sheriff's Office is investigating Saturday's incident.

These "vandals" should be identified as Democrat sponsored, union thugs. They aren't random vandals at all..they're political hit men.

I am not sure I agree. The bombings were done by a very few who traveled from place to place. This is being done by a larger number of locally "inspired" individuals.But you are right we would not want to blame all democrats for these crimes. But, just as leaders from pro-life organizations had to come forward and denounce the bombings, so the democrat's leadership should be out in front denouncing these crimes.

It happened here in the Seattle area too. They broke into Republican Hq. (0r was it Bush HQ?) and stole 3 computers. But of source the press reported it as saying they didn't think it was politically motivated.

Let me know when you hear Kerry or Edwards denounce the vandalism their people are committing against Republicans, all over the country.

The demrat efforts to divide; weaken American. . .create a climate of hate; whereby anything can happen - and we know they hope it will- continues to be fed by the loathsome rhetoric of the Democrat Party.

Another chicken/egg tactic from the Left.

Time for Misters Bush and Cheney to get on the offensive about this on the campaign trail. Dems will say it's a dirty cheap shot, but so what. I can just imagine GWB saying how sad it is in America when Democrat thugs are trying to shut down free speech. I call on Sens Kerry and Edwards to denounce these hate crimes!

fourth time? Have the people who run that office ever hear of cameras? How about a live webcam?

Does anyone remember this happening during the last election? I just do not recall this from 2000?

I do not recall anything of this degree from 1960 on...

"When is Kerry going to denounce these acts on national television?"

He needs to be asked the question, that is for sure.

I have a theory - MONEY with George Soros name, OK'd by Terry McAuliff, is bankrolling criminals across the country. Here in California, lawn signs are destroyed (Bush/Cheney) Cars with bumper stickers are vandalized, some badly damaged and, Kerry/Edwards signs are stolen - no vandalizm.

I know my neighbors and no matter how strong their feelings one way or another, they would never, never do anything like this. For the first time I am afraid to put a Bush/Cheney sign in front of my house because I'm afraid of property damage.

In my opinion, this is a planned attack with the purpose of scaring the American Public to death and to vote for Kerry!

I live in Lake County, Illinois. We had our big Bush signs vandalized. I think kids are doing it with spray paint. These signs are expensive! I don't want to run to my local RNC to replace it. My sign will stay!

Any suggestions to preserve these signs?

I was thinking using a glossy clear coat on the big cardboard sign. If a kid tags it again, I can use a solvent to remove the paint. I asked a craft shop and this is what they recommended. We also have Halloween cardboard cutouts getting tagged by the little thugs. It's pretty annoying.
