who is cleansing society? some dude destroyed a worthless object out of anger. we have no reason to be tolerant of trumps intolerance by showing any kind of reverence to him.

It is a slippery slope. A lot of right wing populists probably have creative ideas about the "worthless objects" in society they want to remove. What do we do if they end up in power and they stop to show "reverence"?

vandalism is not slippery slope to genocide. and the people you're talking about are fucking white supremacists who already have a template for that.

I disagree about that. The US would truly be fucked if white supremacists were held back from taking over the white house only because of a couple of sex scandals. Right wing populists have alarming views in several areas, though, and some of them would probably jump at the opportunity to vandalize their political opponents if society started looking the other way (which you seem to encourage).

Yep, this is how you make people support the anti-Trump agenda.
You know what's going to happen? The idiot at work who supports Trump, will send me this story and tell me that history is just repeating itself, with the "violent left attacking anyone who doesn't agree with them".
I will never be able to convince him anything else, but he talks to people, and he spreads this concept.

I'm not saying it's commendable. But I am saying it's cathartic.

Yeah, youd think a guy driven to destruction because of Trump would understand the effect galvanization can have.
Best way to further entrench someone else's views is to attack them.

At this point its a toss-up whether the vandal is a democrat or a republican.

Was about to say: for his work on the fucking Apprentice? Show wasn't even that good. Sure as shit doesn't deserve a star.
Doesn't hurt that you're talking about CA, one of the states with the largest proportion of Latinos in the country.

I was going to say just take a shit on it but on Hollywood Blvd I'm not sure anyone would even notice.

Unless you really, really need to buy 3 suits for $100 or a bootleg 2pac/Bob Marley t-shirt, I would avoid it. It's a dump.

Yes. Just because it was a Fame Star of someone you dislike does not eliminate the fact that it's a serious act of vandalism against the property of the Hollywood Historic Trust. This is a huge tourist attraction, too.

How? The star would still be there if he just voted. I think this is super cool if the guy was aware of and okay with the consequences. I'd probably hire him once he gets out of jail too.
Running for President was a great idea, Mr. Trum- errr, Scion?
YES! Generally don't like being the after dark, Specially don't like taking the train out of the after 10 pm cause all the crazies flood the train going into downtown.
Well yeah, somebody had to pay. But it wasn't the Donald:
idk after dark the tourists and most of the spangers are gone. Maybe it's because I live in the area but I'd rather be there at midnight when it's largely people out drinking than midday flooded with tourists

As dumb and pointless as this should be, I can't think of something Trump would find more insulting than having his name removed from something.

Holy shit.
Does this fucker pay for ANYTHING?
No it actually isn't. It tappers of into less touristy and more low rent the further east you walk, but it is nowhere near as much of a dump as people are making it out to be. There was a time when talking that midnight walk alone was asking for trouble, but like any other street, the further you venture away from the heavy foot traffic areas, the more aware of your surroundings you should be. The community around the bar scenes and local spots is actually really friendly and welcoming.

It's already repaired. Like I said, dumb shit happens all the time at the walk of fame.

Hey, that's probably the most calories he has burned all year. Smashing the white supremacy is an exhausting workout
You leave Peter out of this. We know who really did it.
One of the few DVD collections I've held onto over the years.
I feel this thread is just heading in the "be nice to Trump and his supporters" direction.
The guy didn't hurt anyone. He took out his frustration on a star. He never threatened anyone. He didn't tell them to get out of the country. He didn't even call them rapists or criminals.
Some of you want others to tip toe around Trump and his racist platform. Sorry, it deserves to be called out at every point possible.
