Unbelievable! WW2 Statue Defaced by Me Too

[kaylagrl]

Saw a report on the news about the man in the iconic photo where he kissed the lady on the day the war was declared over. I knew it would happen in that moment,and it happened,the famous statue was defaced by Me Too supporters. Saw it on the news tonight. Some spokesperson for the left said it was an assault. The man and women in the picture have both passed away but they kept in touch down threw the years sending Christmas cards. How far are we going to let this country sink? I can't imagine they can go any further. smh

That man just passed away yesterday. All those years ago, he was on a date with his future wife when he grabbed a nurse he did not know at all and kissed her to celebrate the end of the war while his date (future wife) stood by watching. Emotions still running high... but all that aside, the issue brought to the forefront is whether or not it is okay to grab a total stranger in public and kiss them, and if it is not, why is it celebrated? Protesting does not change history. Similar occurrences are happening here where (last summer) our provincial capital's city hall, in a gesture of reconciliation, and as a symbol of progress towards and end to Aboriginal discrimination and oppression, tore down a statue of our country's first prime minister.

Opinion doesn't grant the right to commit a criminal act to deface a public statue, either. Two wrongs don't make a right.

That is true, too

Well, don't do it again.

I for one am not surprised.

A celebratory kiss I would give as a reaction to a war or battle won, my love would know the difference
