"Shill-aries" are just as stupid as "Deplorables". I'm shocked.
Lol, someone is going to get some work. Actually, can they just not replace it and take it away? Can that even happen? Just curious.
Haha, this.
How is destroying something honoring a xenophobic, racist bigot the same as being a xenophobic, racist bigot?

You sure about that? Could easily be a Republican angry that Trump's egomania has destroyed his party. Not to trample on your very wise observation that both sides are the same.
what's this from??

Not that I condone this behavior, but you're insane if you think this is equal to Trump supporters outright throwing punches at protesters at his rallies, etc.

Hollywood Blvd is the absolute most disappointing and ugly part of LA.

Yeah I wonder if there's a point where it's not worth it for them to keep fixing it. Like say it's destroyed every week from here on out, would they say fuck it and get rid of it?
They're more likely to just move it down the street outside of the areas that people usually congregate.
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

Fuck them and fuck their feelings. They're bad people. I don't got space in my life to worry about the feelings of some bigoted racists/bigoted racist's supporters.

Wow I'm surprised that wall built around his star didn't keep the perp out!
Guess trumps wall isn't a good deterrent

I don't know a local who goes anywhere near there except when they have out of town guests. Place is terrible.
GAF hates most forms of protests, vandalism being among the most vilified.
Eh...it's not being wrecked simply because it's in a central area. If they were to move it to a different place of the walk people would still seek it out. The WoF isn't even that huge to begin with.
It would be kinda funny if they moved his star off the walk entirely, gave him a private berth waaaaaay east

Same with the Santa Monica pier. Place is a dump with no redeeming qualities (even the arcade sucks) but people always want to go.
His version is certainly more effective than voting for president in California.
Hollywood Blvd in a nutshell is like:
How do you feel about weirdos dressed as cartoon mascots of super heroes charging you money to take pictures with them or being charged out the ass for cheap shit. That place is a tourist trap and nothing but.
Pretty much, but I don't mind Third Street Promenade. Some cool places around there.
I appreciated the humor of the "muted" stencil but just smashing it is lazy and dumb.
It's a dump but it's some of the best people watching outside of Venice Beach.

Can't say I agree with someone just going out and destroying the sidewalk because it has this cunt's name on it. Show some decorum.
Be sure to buy dudes' mix tapes when you're out there. It's hot fire.
If they catch the man I hope he gets a jury trial. I'd award the state $1+1 hour if I was the judge.
It's a crime as it should be, but I'd go as light on the person responsible as possible while still finding him guilty.
If Trump wants to pursue him for damages personally then fine, but it isn't worth his lawyer's fees to do so.

IMO, this wasn't necessary at all. I don't like the guy, but I'm not going to damage property over him.

Yeeeeaaaahh...no. He's going to sue everyone in sight, bitch and moan, and it will never stop.
So it's pretty much the West Coast's Times Square?
The city also does them itself. Lots of deceased legends on their after they passed, without much lobbying or payola.

Trump is going to go full bore anti-Clinton for the next 4 years. You will never see a more sore loser. It's going to be amazing.
Wooooooooooooow!!!! Hats off to you for the Sledgehammer reference! I loved that showYou leave Peter out of this. We know who really did it.

LA resident here, Hollywood Walk of Fame gets vandalized all fucking day. They'll probably replace it eventually.
Haven't seen someone physically destroy a star though, that's a new one.
Someone scratched RAPIST into Cosby's star a few years back iirc. Deep enough they had to resand it
It's worth noting that the Walk of Fame is maintained by the chamber of commerce iirc. You see city workers out there fixing them all the time.
Surely they should have removed Cosby's star?!
