Vandalism Destroys Landmark Lighthouse

I've been to Cape Meares Lighthouse twice since moving to Oregon nearly 4 years ago. It's a wonderful place to take the famly and wittness a piece of history. Vandals shot up this monument this past weekend destroying the 100 year old light that has protected shipping for so many years. What's wrong with people like this? Are they so self centered or mentally disturbed that they must destroy everything of beauty? There's now a $5,000 bounty on their heads. I'm sickened by this senseless act.

I don't like guns no need for them in this day and age - least not for the public.

Due to my ability to time travel I can assure you that those words were used in an advert for the ;

Your future is safe(condoms) with us corporation 2045

All males were fitted with one at birth,the nano genes in the sheath monitored behaviour and should the subject commit any anti social behaviour it exploded.

This lead to the famous folk song---Look I am a man,must go and vandalise something,oh dear my balls have blown up and I am dead.

What a shame - I hope it gets repaired and I hope the perpetrators get what's coming to them

Re: Vandalism Destroys Landmark Lighthouse

Sadly it's a sign of the times Bob, . . we have the same mindless yobs over here, . . millions of pounds were spent restoring the Union Canal and yesterday yobs drove a car into it, . . they thought the ice would take it's weight, . . the pollution from acid in the battery plus the engine oils etc will create havoc with the aquatic life, . . sadly none of them drowned.
