I second this sentiment. It is a bit premature to attribute any political philosophy to the perpretators. Let's not turn this into a return of the Symbionese Liberation Army or the Weathermen just yet.=I am worried/disheartened by some out in the blogasphere who are so quick to point a finger at the left/anti-war crowd, not to say I know for sure that they are not responsible, but in my experiences despicable people inhabit all points along the political spectrum. Better to establish the facts and then lay blame instead of trying to do it the other way around.
In cases of vandalism around these parts, it is often teenagers with no supervision or intelligence, just engaged in mindless property damage. In a way, it would be more interesting if the local vandals COULD tell the difference between che guevara, carlos the jackal, ho chi minh and benito mussolini. But it is always just a couple of losers with no more motivation than, "Hey, let's go get some beer and irritate people by spraypainting something alot of people will see. Yeah, that would be cool," with no coherent political philosophy at all.
