My hero! I'd cop to it but I didn't do it. Wonder what kind of "oil" was used for the major site damage...
Midnight motor oil change and disposal?
This is kind of like having those lack of enforcement policies blow up in their face.
Clogging the PL, crime pipeline, that is.
The purple line with be the demise of bethesda.
Merely a test run which I applaud. Any fly in the ointment (oil meant) to take time out of their day to call police is a moral victory for the perp. But the real question is what would it take to do real damage at this point other than mere annoyances?
So you applaud vandalism? Such a nice person you must be.
More like the straw that broke the camel's back.
For all the above haters know or don't, this could be a crime (prank) committed by those bad boys of B-town; BCC, WJ, Whitman, or GP. Such delinquents.
Yessir, getting even, if only in one's mind is the only thing left in this county besides frontier justice and vigilantism! And I am a nice person, just serious about my opinions.
Did the vandals climb the chain link(ed) fence easily in order to gain entry into the Elmer Gantry?
12:53, as long as we're being bombarded by poor decisions by incompetent to malfeasant local politicians we need to resort to desperate measures. We cannot even finally honestly elect at the federal level without constant sniping and undermining, what's left for us but more intense response?
How do know it was Vandals, it could have been the Visigoths or the Mongrels.
12:53. If our lib politicians keeps rallying around these insane '20 percent' issues and foisting them upon us,maybe it is time we copied some pages from their 'outrage playbook.'
You forgot the Ostrogoths and the Huns.
Attila was legit and wouldn't resort to such trivial antics.
I see they have installed additional fences to keep you civil disobediencers at bay.
