Orlando vandals go on anti-Obama spree
From Local 6:
Vandals spray-painted “Obama Smokes Crack” and other hate messages on 60 city vehicles parked across the street from City Hall in downtown Orlando.
Investigators said the vandals painted the messages—which appear to be politically motivated—after dark Saturday night.
Local 6 showed several vehicles covered in different colors with the “Obama” messages.
A passing motorist initially spotted the damage and called police.
“I’m driving by and every car I see has been hit with spray paint,” witness Mike Lowe said. “There is so much damage to them. There are messages written on them and the vandals left their business card, which is crazy.”
Special business cards left near the damaged vehicles contained negative messages about Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain. However, there were positive words about Sen. Hillary Clinton, Local 6’s Kimberly Houk reported.
No, I don’t know what to make of this, nor do I think it’s reasonable to assess blame yet, but it sure is curious.
