HOW DARE THEY!!!! Imagine what Patton would do to those COWARDS if he was alive? He won't have cowards in his army!

I'd quote Patton, but there are language laws on this board!



Man.....If I was there I would have said.

"Allah is great, eh? Well we'll see if Allah is great enough to stop the ROYAL Tar kicking you're about to recieve! You DARE vandilize pvt property, and the GREAT General Patton's memorial no less? Prepare to suffer the consiquences! I'll bring the war to YOU!"


That's what would have happened if I was there.....

He has another museum in Ca? The only one that I knew of was the one at Ft. Knox. It would have been funny watching them try to do that there today (well, any day really, just I'm sure that the MP's are paying a bit more attention recently).

I'm starting to wonder if disgruntled and brainwashed youth, reared on despising their American heritage, are begging that the war open up on the home front for their own delusioned amusement.

Do they have any idea about what the repercussions are of starting such a fight? Their is more at stake than just curing their boredom, a quick rush of vandalism, angry rhetoric with their buddies, and the excitement of sabotage.

If caught in their little acts of war, they could watch their buddies die a slow death on the battlefield of their choosing. They could unleash the utter wrath of an enraged populace that has had just a little more than enough. They could get a bayonet in the guts by an angry samaritan, and then get a cigarette to smoke as he sits down and watches the last drops of life drain from their useless form.

This is more serious than an MTV brat could ever imagine.

He had a home in Pasadena California, my home town. Nice place up in the hills. It's about 20 miles from downtown LA. I didn't know he had a museum in the desert out there though. I know about the one here in KY but have yet to go.

Georgie grew up in CA. If anyone catches the infidels, I think Georgie would smile upon them if you kicked their butts.

About '93 I saw a couple of miscreant teens/young adults climing on the Patton monument near Blithe, CA. They broke part of the monument, then looked around guilty-like, got in their car and beat a hasty retreat...right past me.

RRRRRING "California Highway Patrol"

"I just witnessed two young males vandalize the Patton Monument"

"Did you get a discription"

"You bet. Two male white, xxxx hair, xxxx shirts, xxxx pants, xxxx car, xxxx licence plate heading west on I 10"

"Thank you, were on it"

Damn vandles.

Frankly I think that the states should implement corporal punishment for vandalism.

Remember that worthless punk Micheal Fay? He spray painted parked cars, removed several road signs and got 3-4 LASHES of the CANE when he was caught and sentenced. No less than President (at that time) Clinton appealed to the Singaporean Govt to let him off.

I hate vandals......should make them bend over and give them a 12 gauge blast of birdshot into the *** from 15-20ft.

How about stomping said vandal(s) into a muddy spot, then kicking the water out ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

"Pardon me, Mr. Brainless Vandal, is Alah great enough to shield you from the 55 gallon drum of Whoop-@zz that I am about to open up and dump on you? What say we test your theory?"

In Iraq, if you get caught vandalizing any of the bizzillion public portaits of Saddam, you get the death penalty.

I hope we do not sink to that level.

Back when my dad was a young man(1930's) and watermelons where a favorite thing to steal as a prank and double barrel shotguns where in vogue my Father told me about farmers who dumped the shot out of shotgun shell and replaced one with beans and the other with rock salt.The first barrel fired was beans to raise the welts and the second rubbed salt into the wounds. I think maybe my father was speaking from experence though he never said so but did say it stung for a long time.

I think the double barrels should again come out of the closets

I like caning, Caning is good. Better though to take all their goodies in repayment.

Vandals Scrawl Patton Museum in Calif.

CHIRIACO SUMMIT, Calif. -- Vandals struck the General Patton Memorial Museum, spray painting "No War" near a statue of the World War II hero and scrawling on as many as 19 military tanks.

"We're one of the first casualties of the war against Iraq," said Jan Roberts, the museum's board president.

It wasn't clear who was responsible for the damage.

On one tank, "Alla is God" was scrawled on the front, "America is evil" on one side and "Iraq will win" on the other.

The executive director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council in Los Angeles said the misspelling was just one sign that Muslims weren't involved.

"Every Muslim knows Allah is spelled A-L-L-A-H," said Salam Al-Marayati. Muslims say, "Allah is the one God," not "Allah is God," he added.

The Riverside County Sheriff's Department is investigating the vandalism, which was discovered Thursday by employees.

The museum, near where Gen. George S. Patton established a training center in 1942, is about 160 miles east of Los Angeles.
