Anti-war protesters deface Capitol building

Anti-war protesters once again prove to be anti-American. Defacing our Capital building is contemptible. I am disappointed...but not surprised.

Anti-war protesters spray paint Capitol building
By Jackie Kucinich
http://thehill.com/thehill/export/TheHill/News/Frontpage/012507/protesters.html
Anti-war protesters were allowed to spray paint on part of the west front steps of the United States Capitol building after police were ordered to break their security line by their leadership, two sources told The Hill.

According to the sources, police officers were livid when they were told to fall back by U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) Chief Phillip Morse and Deputy Chief Daniel Nichols. "They were the commanders on the scene," one source said,who requested anonymity. "It was disgusting."
...
Approximately 300 protesters were allowed to take the steps and began to spray paint "anarchist symbols" and phrase such as "Our capitol building" and "you can’t stop us" around the area, the source said.

The article states that the people were anarchists, not anti-war protestors. They are the same people that rioted during the WTO summit here in Seattle.

I have always found the whole 'anarchy' thing pretty humorous. Looking at the scrawny little *****s that believe in that rubbish, you just gotta laugh. If there were true anarchy, I'd spend my lunch hour hunting those little bastards with dogs. I bet it would not seem to cool then, eh?

Why use dogs? Ammo is cheaper than dog food.

"While there were minor instances of spray painting of pavement by a splinter group of Anarchists who were seeking a confrontation with the police, their attempts to breach into secure areas and rush the doors of the Capitol were thwarted," Morse said. "The graffiti was easily removed by the dedicated [Architect of the Capitol] staff, some of whom responded on their day off to quickly clean the area."
Anarchists, who needs them?

That's equivalent to painting moral slogans on a whorehouse. I'm not surprised that you're upset. To you it's a temple.

If there were true Anarchy, you'd be significantly richer, and Anarchists would be heavily armed, so you'd either find a more satisfying pursuit, or face something like a Dynamit-Nobel PzF 3 IT600, a very high quality defensive weapon.

And anarchy has no defined lunch hour, so you could take it at any time of the day!

They were a "splinter group" of anarchists of the anti-war protest. The anti-war crowd is a coalition of all types of nutbag groups.

Wait, you're saying they weren't anti-war protesters?

Just a coincidence they were there?

Tax money must've been spent to clean up after the vandals. That sucks.

Tax money will be used to clean up after fintsone, and that's going to cost way more than paint removal will.
