Jackie Robinson statue defaced with racist slurs, swastikas outside Cyclones park

[Penny Lane 8,159]

No, no, no,

What we have here is someone identifying them self as a Neo-nazi.

Open your eyes, that is a huge clue.

How many people in that area profess to be Neonazi?

That would be a small pool to fish in with federal resources crawling through emails, web postings and the like.

The difference between you and me is you WANT it to be a Neo-nazi so you can hate them all the more.

I remove my self and look at the facts as a detective would.

What? I don't particularly care who it is. I certainly don't 'want' them to be anything. I don't hate them.

I think they're a punk who wanted to get a reaction and got one.

You're not looking at facts. You're taking the story and running with it, for whatever reason. You want there to be some hidden meaning behind it other than it just being a punk kid being an idiot. He has to be something more, in your eyes.

That's fine. Don't project it onto others, though.

Is this the first time you've seen a swastika thrown onto something in an act of vandalism?

It's not mine. I've seen them thrown on mail boxes, garage doors, random businesses, cars, fences, statues, etc.

You think all of them were genuine neo-nazis? Come on.

You must have missed her post with the photo of the Obama campaign poster. I think you are arguing with yourself at this point. Let us know who wins.

She posted a photo of another person who can't deface correctly, she never showed who did it, for all we know this was one of the hundreds of examples of faux hate sighting.

These people are so desperate to confirm the sterotype they have that they wade into TEA parties with fake signs, they hang nooses at Colleges and actually carve their bodies with razor knives to prove there is a huge movement which just won't do these things on their own..... or at least not often enough.

The sad part is, all these fake cases detract resources from the real ones.

What is it about this particular story that got you talking about the "fake hate crimes"?

So someone defaced a statue. Happens every day. What is it about this one that's screaming conspiracy to you? Since obviously SOMETHING got you started on this tangent.

seriously, because it is spelled incorrectly the graffiti must be fake?

I have no idea what's caught his attention other than the spelling error (happens all the time in vandalism) or the choice of statue.

The whole "but people like Jackie Robinson, who would do that???" is hilarious.

Maybe it is not fake. A secret Muslim waiting to ambush the American public would be a Muslim Lier.

Or maybe he is just a lazy Muslim.

Oh No !

What are the chances the miscreants will be found and dismembered?

A despicable act of vandalism sparked a chorus of outrage Wednesday after swastikas and racist slurs were found scrawled on the iconic Jackie Robinson statue outside the Brooklyn Cyclones stadium.

[Karee 4,190]

Oh No !

What are the chances the miscreants will be found and dismembered?

Maybe we can have another big trial!

[Darnell 8,478]

Well, depends on who did the dismemberment, but, OK - I'm all for a big trial.

After dismemberment, of course.

[Danno 1,228]

Depends on who they turn out to be.

If it should be some Skinhead type, he is a goner for a long time.

If it is some Neo-nazi impostor from the Left he will get minor charges.

If it is a Travon Martin rebel, we will all sit down and try to understand his need for doing that and see what we can learn from it.

(I vote for door number 2)

wait, you think that this juvenile graffiti is a leftist attempt to smear neo nazis or neo conservatives?

probably a pointless question since the differences between the two are so vague..

You gots some weird fantasies Marvin!
