Apparently this started over a proposed increase in metro fares. News reports 20 people have died and 2500 injured so far in the last 3-4 weeks of protests.

Exactly what we’re they “ demonstrating” ? Looting techniques and hatred for religion? If they intended to send a political message it was buried In their own actions.

It's happening, bit by bit.

Little by little...even way up here in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.  Made the Front Page:

MARQUETTE — The refurbished Pioneer Catholic Cemetery, dedicated only a month ago, already has been vandalized.

Black paint was sprayed on a monument and Stations of the Cross at the cemetery, located near the intersection of Pioneer Road and Division Street in Marquette.

 

The site earlier this year was cleaned up and refurbished as a reflection spot for the public, with trails winding through a wooded area.

John Fee, communications director for the Diocese of Marquette, said the damage was reported to the Marquette City Police Department on Tuesday and likely happened a day or two before.

Marquette police are investigating, he said.

Fee said the diocese will get expert opinions on the best way to repair the damage. He expected several techniques will be used as not only was the monument defaced, but also all 14 Stations of the Cross.
