Vandals dumped a bucket of red paint on a downtown veterans memorial this morning, the fifth anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, in what police suspect was a symbolic act of protest. Passers-by spotted the blood-toned paint on the Anchorage Veterans Memorial, in the Delaney Park Strip off I Street, during the morning commute and reported it to police. The soldier's helmet was blood red, with the paint dripping down to the ground below.
"There's a movement across the country, since it's the fifth anniversary of the war, to protest," police Lt. Paul Honeman said.
Police say they are investigating the vandalism as a crime, and the responsible party could be facing charges of malicious destruction of property or felony criminal mischief, depending on what it cost to clean up the paint, he said.

Hang the scum.
Kill them.
Hopefully, there’s a special place in hell for these anti-war freaks. They don’t deserve to be anywhere else.
Peter Pierre, left, and Doug Ellison of the city's Facility Maintenance department brush thinner to remove oil-based red paint from the World War II infantryman statue at the Anchorage Veterans Monument Wednesday morning March 19, 2008 on the Delaney Park Strip. Paint was dumped onto the piece early Wednesday morning, perhaps to coincide with national protests against the war in Iraq. "It's a damn shame," said Pierre of the vandalism. "This doesn't help nobody."
I second, all those in favor, say ‘aye’.
Firing squad.
That’s a WWII memorial. I guess this scum would have surrendered to Hitler and Tojo too, just like they aspire to dhimmitude.
ping
AYE x 100!
Firing squad at the very least, traitors - all of ‘em! Not good enough to even shine our troops’ boots!
aye
I'll second that.
On the one hand, I would love to catch these cowards in the act; on the other hand, I don’t wish to spend my remaining years in jail for murder … quandary. ;-)
Firing squad hell. Gut shoot the bastards and let them die holding their guts in.
The typical lowlife is soooo pathetic, he'd probably enjoy the attention.
“Night and fog”
they just...... disappear
Liberalism’s finest. Children who do not understand honor, sacrifice or duty.
These are people who probably believe WWII was wrong.
I hate these people, can’t help it - I just flat out hate ‘em.
Immature, ungrateful @#$%^&&*’n Marxists!!!!!!!!!! I’m tired of playing games with these fools! Hang em!
