The pictures below are my pics of the defacing of the war memorials in Highland Falls by the Peace Nazis last Saturday.
While it is minor, it is still genuine and real, and must be stopped

< Remember, while these are monir, this is only the start.
The so-called PEACE CROWD has already begiun a campaign of slander at the Coast Guard academy with their speaker shouting at least 3 times from his microphone that all the veterans on the other side of the street were baby killers.
Again, at West point, one of the moonbats was shouting that each and every person who went to Iraq was a war criminal.
This is unacceptable.

Flags Burned, Replaced With Swastikas

(05-28) 15:58 PDT ORCAS ISLAND, Wash. (AP) —
Vandals burned dozens of small American flags that decorated veterans’ graves for Memorial Day and replaced many of them with hand-drawn swastikas, authorities said Monday.
Forty-six flags were burned completely and another 33 were found in charred tatters Sunday in the cemetery, authorities said. Swastikas drawn on paper appeared where 14 of the flags had been.
Members of the American Legion on this island off Washington’s northwest coast replaced the burned flags with new ones Sunday afternoon.
The vandals repeated the stunt on Memorial Day after a guard left at dawn, the San Juan County sheriff’s office said. This time, the vandals left 33 of the hand-drawn swastikas.
“This is not an act of free speech. This is a crime,” Sheriff Bill Cumming said in a statement released Monday afternoon.
Sheriff’s department officials declined to comment further on Monday.
The defacing is the taping of pieces of paper - is that it?
Excellant point.
No "maybe" about it. The media rarely talks about the actions of the anti-US types. FYI, the same thing happened at the Marine Corps Memorial / Iwo Jima back in late 2002 or early 2003. Swastika grafitti accompanied by anti-military "peace" flyers. It was thankfully cleaned up within hours. No media mention though, not even locally.
The amount that the msm covers and shills for the left and how it still holds a monopoly over most people's perceptions of the world around them is sad.
Apparently so. I think I would have taken care of it before anybody had a chance to snap a picture, but that's just me..
Pretty pathetic really. Probably best to ignore and not give them the air-time they seek.
All in the name of “free speech” no doubt...
That’s just so sad that people think so lowly of this country to deface and denounce OUR military and said property. It’s sickening really... :(
It maybe minor but it is growing. This weekend saw some teens throwing eggs at our troops in a parade (they were caught) and the removal and burning of U.S. grave flags, being replaced by paper flags with a swastika, not once, but twice.
Damn anti-troop anarchists are feeling emboldened.
[Mr] T
Maybe you would feel it was more important if they dug up everyone who died for this country in those wars and put one flyer each on what’s left of their faces?
I see it was intervention that made me go to DC instead...
How much more do you need to deface a war memorial?
Does it matter if it is tape or paint?
How much of the one you choose?
BOTH are defacing a war memorial, whether it is tape and paper or paint.
Let me know if this is bad enough for you...
Vandals Tarnish Memorial Day With Swastikas

As veterans and their families filtered in to a local American Legion on Memorial Day, they found a somber scene.
Swastikas were sprayed all over the Manoa American Legion building in Delaware County, prevalently displayed and polluting the patriotic look of the veterans’ sanctuary.
“I was just shocked to think that someone would come to a place like this and desecrate it with a swastika,” said Phil Miller of American Legion Manoa Post 667. “Especially on Memorial Day. It’s just horrible.”
Some volunteers spent the day of honor and remembrance painting over the fresh swastika graffiti that tarnished the post.
Police were still investigating the vandalism.
Wondering who organized this.
Some commies....
“Some commies....”
That said, I bet you don’t see them defacing war memorials in Russia!
Where is Highland Falls?
Thats pathetic.
B@stards.
Anyone from the liberal NE
West Point
What state?
WHat group or groups were those fliers from?
Thanks, not being from the NE the place names mean nothing to me.
It is but what can you do about it?
There is going to be a payday on down the road and the ones that doing this and the politicans that encourage it are not going to like the price.
Weak.
This is typical liberal moonbat behavior. Note the young child in the background enjoying the show. This was in Oregon or Washington state, I believe.
I see things like this, and I think of what our POW's went through...risking a fatal beating for keeping a contraband American flag that they made from scraps of cloth and hid. They would bring it out every day and say the pledge of allegiance. Then I see stuff like this and it just burns me.
I left my flag up too long last year, and I noticed that it was frayed and had some small holes near the edge. I felt that I had disrespected the flag.
So, when I see people doing something as "innocent" as putting various things like stickers on an American flag, yeah. It bugs me.
The moron in the picture needs a blow torch applied to a sensitive area of his anatomy. A flame thrower would take care of the rest of this crowd of moonbats.
I hope that son of a bitch suffers a long painful death.
These are NOT AMERICANS that do this!
I’ll post a link tonight of a huge version so we can read it
Wow. I thought I had seen it all. With that, the bar for liberal moonbattery has been raised several notches.
Wish someone had picked up the staff and rammed it in. Then he could have flown the flag upside down, like liberals do, all he wanted.
But how dare you question liberals patriotism. I mean he obviously LOVES this country.
You accurately echo the sentiments of Ann Coulter on this.
Liberals act as if Patriotism is an undefinable quality that cannot be quantified.
This picture disproves that. As she would put it:
“Who is more patriotic? The guy crapping on a burnt American flag or the Daughters of the American Revolution?”
Not really defacing, IMO — no permanent damage. Desecration, more like.
