This is disgusting. Seems we have young folks out there that have no respect for anything, guess it’s probably because they never had to work for anything. Hope they are caught, and forced to pay all damages, as well as labour to restore things! Something to be said about ‘an eye for an eye’!!

  I agree with you . I hope they are caught and yes they should have to pay with a sign on them plus keep that area clean for a full year.

  Although this is terrible… do not generalize it on the young Folk. There are a lot of young folk whi are very respectful, hard working and earn their keeP. In fact, I would go as far as say some young folk work harder than some old folk. Stop with the ageism and focus on the problem of vandalized property.

This is absolutely disgusting… Some people children… Probably some drunken idiots who have no lives had to do such thing. I hope they find these people and justice is served….
