A man decided to knock one of the heads from the Marines raising the Flag over Iwo Jima Monument. Not the large one in Arlington, but the smaller one at Quantico.
A little digging will get you the missing fact that will boil your blood. He is an illegal immigrant from Mexico. According to the federal sources, he illegally crossed into the United States in December 1999. He was granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals by the Obama administration in 2014. The Biden administration extended it in 2024.

It is NOT hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage to repair the monument as the news writers describe the crime. The head can be re-attached, seams disappeared, for far far less. I wish they’d pay me hundreds of thousands of dollars to fix this thing but the repair estimate wreaks of grift and someone more criminal and devious than the Mexican is going to make out splendidly. What does cost incalculable damage beyond all estimates is allowing these psycho slimes to remain in America. Trump’s deportation efforts are an utter failure.

Perhaps YOU would care to submit an estimate of cost to repair by you? i’m sure the Park Service would jump on your offer after reviewing other statuary repairs efforts you have made. Thanks for offering.

The city issued a request for bids.
The work was to repair a small roof on a cupola.
The cupola was at the corner of a city-owned building 90 feet above the street.
The only way to reach the cupola roof was workers to be lifted. This involved cranes. Flagmen and traffic cones, safety officers, a safety inspector, and a minimum of two programmable traffic message signs were required.
Being at the corner, two streets were affected.
One two lane street was closed for its entire one block length. A three lane one-way street had two lanes closed for two blocks.
The required manpower consisted of company employees, city employees, and temporary hired consultants. The city stipulated a shared cost of the consultants.
All mobilization, staging, performance of work was to be completed with 12 calander days. No work on Saturday or Sundays.
The actual work could be adequately performed by two employees within three days.
It turned out that I was the only bidder. The city did not supply an engineer’s estimate. My bid was astronomically high. Even I was surprised. But the numbers were solid.
The job was cancelled. But not until after the city consulting three engineering firms (after receipt of my bid). Of course those firms charged for their services. Those amounts were never released to the public, or to my special request.
What was made public was the city expenditure for professional services by private firms of work connected to that project. That amount caused me to sit up straight and exclaim, Wow!
I know a thing, I even know 2+2 does not equal 27.

What is this Mickey Mouse shit? What in the name of Jesus H. Christ is this Mexican doing near my statue? Why is this Mexican out of his bunk after lights out? Why is this Mexican vandalizing that statue? Why aren’t you stomping this Mexican’s guts out?

Your statue, indeed.
This morning I awoke from a dream. Its a helluva thing to wake up angry.
Why is MY flag at half mast because the wicked corrupt demented kiddiediddler jopedo has finally died?

A friend of mine hypothesized that if there were a way to send this guys picture to every Marine, active duty and otherwise, that might be worth doing.
