Ed McMahon?!! I’m saddened to hear that about him.

““He did say it (the graffiti) was a project, and that some professor wanted him to put those initials on some building”

Charge the professor too!

[sonic109]

Probably has some meaning to Mexicans perhaps? What is this assclowns name ?

[VRWCmember]

Yeah, I was surprised. He always seemed like such a nice guy in those Publishers Clearinghouse commercials and Medicaid supplemental insurance commercials. I was very disappointed to see him show such lack of respect and common courtesy at such a revered monument.

Roman numerals?
L= 50
C= 100

Defacing any property should be dealt with legally. No one has a right to do that.

Defacing our memorials and other treasures in this country should be a much larger penalty.

Having lived in Texas a good part of my life, I say they should hang this scumbag.

[sam_paine]

Exactly! I caught that too! Professor telling the kids to put it on SOME building? As if other-than-the-alamo was ok!

I HAVE BEEN TO SACRED SITES ALL OVER THE WORLD,
and I can tell you that the Alamo ranks in the top 5 places I have been, because of the sacred quality of
the environment there.

The other of the top 5 in my book:

Ise Jingu ( Japan National Shinto Shrine)

Culloden Battle Field ( Scotland)

Kalapa Valley ( Nova Scotia)

Ten Ba Jingu ( Heaven Horse Temple) Japan

Little graffitto idiots who cannot see properly do things like this, and their lives are simply little smears of shite on the purity of ancestral sacrifice.Because of that, they will bring misfortune on themselves and thier families.
Liberals likely.

The Alamo is very much like a Shinto shrine dedicated to the ancestral American warriors of freedom. They are still there for thier energy of compassion does not wane. We should not forget it, and it is the most poweful shrine in the USA.

Many times in my life, I have seen the desecration of national monuments. Never...not once by a conservative; always by a liberal. (ditto for spitting on soldiers or burning our flag)

Little wonder that penalties aren't more severe. Hell, it might even qualify you for public office.

“LCC = 250?...........”

Since this is a 44 year old taking art classes I am going to guess that LCC stands for Log Cabin Club, a gay rights organization. His professor probably thought it would politically symbolic if he sent out all of his students to deface property in the name of gay rights.

A great post. I envy your travels.

As a Texan, I have always found the Presidio La Bahia, outside Goliad, to be even more moving than the Alamo.

[Tex Pete]

I, for one, would physically stop someone if I saw him defacing the Alamo. I would bet I could find a few fellow Texans who would help...at any given time.

[SwinneySwitch]

Ping!

If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.

[WayneS]

Wouldn’t 250 be CLC?

[WayneS]

I vote for option 2.

[WayneS]

Ooooops.

You’re right.

I just posted that CLC was 250, but THAT would be 150, wouldn’t it?
