So some family in a podunk burg just outside of Vancouver, WA with an Obama sign in their yard got their car keyed over the weekend. The asshole vandals wrote “White Power” with a key on one side of their vehicle and “I’m Gay” on the other.
To say that the local leftists are going apeshit would be an understatement.
Ken Potts calls himself a patriot. That’s what his front yard tells you too.
Metal American flags are staked in the ivy beside the driveway. A red, white, and blue pinwheel spins near the front sidewalk. One flagpole flies the American flag. A second flagpole carries the banner of the Army’s 101st Airborne.
Even his mailbox on North 185th Street in Shoreline sports the image of the Airborne’s screaming eagle.
But he says that in the last year the mailbox has been blown up twice with fireworks. The house has been egged. Paint has been thrown on the house too. The flags have been torn down and ripped up more than once.
And the 101st Airborne flag has had the word “murder” and a swastika written on it with a permanent marker.
“It’s really difficult for me to see something like this and not feel sad,” Potts told us of the vandalism that started around election day last year. Especially, he says, since the 101st led the charge in World War II to defeat Nazi Germany.
But the biggest insult to this house with a permanent Bush-Cheney placard attached to the second story and a collection of mostly Republican election signs in the side yard, is the spray paint someone left on his vinyl siding this past weekend.
In two-foot tall letters on the side of his house facing Meridian someone painted “Bush Nazis.”
I’ve repeatedly offered the pukes at these leftist site who are always claiming that they are the only ones who suffer from political vandalism that I will supply the McCain bumperstickers if they supply the car to park in either Seattle’s Capital Hill, University District, Fremont or Wallingford and see just how long the windows remain unbroken, the paint not scratched and the tires fully inflated.
Oddly enough, no one has yet taken me up on my offer.
Heh, I had two support the troops stickers ripped off my truck when I lived in Queen Anne.
Never lost one in Ballard though.
