Anti-War Vandals hit Congressman's Office
2007-03-20
LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Vandals upset over the Iraq war defaced U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers' office overnight, a spokesman said Tuesday. The unknown individuals splattered red paint on the Lansing building and put up a sign saying the Republican has "blood" on his hands. They also spray painted the sidewalk with the words "no more deaths," glued shut the front door of the building and destroyed security cameras, said Andy Keiser, Rogers' chief of staff.

Sheriff's deputies were providing extra security at the Brighton home where Rogers lives with his wife and two children, Keiser said. "The aggressive destruction of federal property and vandalism was a callous attempt to intimidate Congressman Rogers and his staff," he said in a statement. "We all are entitled to our own opinion on the situation in Iraq, but we are not entitled to destruction of taxpayer property and intimidation of federal officials."

The FBI, U.S. Capitol police and Lansing police were investigating.

#3  Racist pure and simple. To the current batch of anti-war protestors non-whites killing non-whites is just fine as long as no whites are anywhere near or tries to do anything about it except give money and feel bad (see North Korea, or Darfur).

If whites try to stop the conflict they are cast as villians.

The fact that Bush and Company haven't managed to frame the arguement in this way shows they are inept at the media side of the conflict.

The fact that Bush and Company haven't pushed forth the Stalinist character of those sponsering the anti-war protests shows the same thing.

#1  These were some of the guys who couldn't make it to the (not quite) big protest in DC Saturday, so they had to express themselves some other way.
