The quickest way to feel ashamed.......

[retrojet]

Do not want to get into politics here ( it's da rules) , coz whoever is in 'power', does the same as the ones before, absolutely f-all... Excuse my French...

And even after wasting all the best youth a country has to offer by going to war, whether it's a 'just' one, or not... it's the common man who is left to carry the cost, clean up the mess, take in the dregs and pay for the fat cats to carry on getting fatter...

Idiot parents having idiot kids = riots in England... And everything that goes with it!

Parent and teachers unable to raise a hand to unruly kids... Then send them straight to the front lines, instead... Let the enemy waste a few rounds...

Anyway, have a nice day, guys, and thank you for listening... I feel much better, now!

Jesus tap-dancing Christ...

Anyway, on topic...this is a truly despicable act. Heres to a quick death to the perpetrators.

They need f'ing shooting!

You can imagine how I felt when some low life scumbags stole my Dad's memorial stone off the family grave. We never found out who.

I mean what can you do with a piece of engraved marble?

Shootin' 'em's too quick.

You can rework it and sell it to other people. This is the most common reason why monuments are stolen.

Well, I'm still getting the impression most would want to punish them harshly, for stealing objects of minor economical value and not hurting a single living soul with it.

Actually what's really giving me the chills is that those people to be remembered died in a war that started with similar bickering and crap. Over people's political and religious ideals for example.

It might be YOUR ideal to have these memorials preserved for eternity - I for sure can tell you I respect the fallen but I, and I'd bet them as well, could care less for a plate of copper. It's just really not a big deal and can be re-created in a minute or two.

Again, it's wrong to steal - but it's just so much more wrong to pretend this is the end of the world.
There are children and girls out there, abused or forced into horrible conditions. There are animals and people suffering from the plaque called humans. There are certainly a billion more important things to do than threaten the lives of copper thieves. If you want to do something good join greenpeace and make sure animals (we humans are animals as well) get treated fairly e.g. or go and help unstable countries, help people grow and develop. But sitting here and insulting those guys won't help makes it sound like you have double standards. The world will NOT become a better place if people will be punished or killed for stealing copper.

Oh and memorials are for those who forget - if you really are what you say then I'm sure you belong to the kind of people that won't forget - even without a memorial you wouldn't, now would you?

Wow, your way of thinking astonishes me it really does

It has nothing to do with the financial value of the copper plaque, it's what it represents.

If I saw someone defacing a war memorial I would kick the s**t out of them. No questions asked.

It's not theft, it's desecration in my book. And it's massivley, massivley disrespectfull.


Also you can't defend every wrong by referencing a greater wrong, it's irrelevant...
WTF has animal rights, Human rights, Human plague (really?) got to do with a couple of chancers with no respect stealing a piece of a war memorial?

Like I said, all they really need is a good kicking.

A young kid who is scooped up by his country in the draft and sent to war in a bloody battle really shouldn't be blamed for his governments crazy plans. I say give the government heads some weapons put them out in the country and see how they feel about shooting it up to the death. I bet no. "Let's talk this thing out" would be the instant answer to that I bet.
