More Damaged Statues [UPDATE]

  • A few of the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation’s Horses of Honor fell victim to their popularity during a busy Chicago Marathon weekend, with two vandalized and several damaged after people climbed or leaned on them.

    The horses, decorated by local artists and installed along Michigan Avenue and in other parts of downtown, honor officers who died or were injured in the line of duty.

    The company handling the approximately 60 statues’ installation has checked all of them for damage, and had to take three in to be repaired.
And big surprise - the one individual arrested? Local problem child:
  • A Near West Side man who broke the wooden wings off a Chicago police memorial horse statue along North Michigan Avenue while sitting on it was ordered held on $50,000 bail today.

    Darius Moss, 25, of the 2300 block of West Jackson Boulevard, is charged with three felony counts of criminal damage to property. Judge Peggy Chiampas ordered him held on $50,000 bail.
You just can't leave nice things out when company comes around.

UPDATE:  The title of the Tribune piece is further proof of their decline from the voice of "Mid-Western Republican" to "Ball-Washers of the Illinois Combine"
  • Horse statues honoring police fall victim to their own popularity
No they didn't - they fell prey to morons, idiots, morally-and-mentally-deficient wastes of tissue who suck up oxygen so there's less for the rest of us to breathe. How difficult is it to stay off of a piece of sculpture that doesn't explicitly invite you to climb on it? How hard is it to read a sign? But the Tribune wants you to think it's because the displays are "popular"?

Did you notice it took the Trib almost 3 days to identify the offender in custody? Anyone wonder why? Because they had to try to tie it into the crowds that attended the Chicago Marathon? Right - that's a crowd that has been notorious for years, destroying everything in their path as they jog throughout the city.

Bail seems awful excessive for minor property damage. It isn't like he shot or knifed anyone.

This piece of garbage Darius Moss lives at 2300 block of West Jackson Boulevard. That should say it all. The people that live over there are savages who already destroyed their own neighborhoods, so now they have nothing to do but wreck things downtown.

They should take his mamma's welfare check to cover the damages. Or better yet throw them out of their section 8 dwelling.

Im sick and tired of my tax dollars paying for pieces of garbage like Darius Moss!!

If the horses were commemorating a cop killer or Obama, the liberal douchebags would have posed for a picture with them and left them unscathed. Fucking sickening. Fallen officers cannot be honored without jagbag wastes of semen ruining the effort. Always remember brothers and sisters, this is what the left thinks of you while they have their phones out filming your traffic stop to hand over to Loevy & Lowww-vee.

In Greek mythology, wasn't Darius the one who made wings held together with wax, flew too close to the sun, with the wax melting and him falling to his death?

That's why he doesn't like wings.

Now, kees me you fool!!!!

I was at the Hyatt for the unveiling of these horses and I knew the savages would mess with thrm. Not by just the random stupid tourists but the scum-sucking pieces of shit who roam the city, and no, I don't mean every single democrat. Although they are the cause of the problem. God bless every single one of you Officers.

The material used for these"works" of art are substandard.

The cost of the horses before anything is slapped on is about 7 grand.

The artist are free to put whatever they have in their garages and call it art.

Be wary of the fundraiser using police as the poster child for donating cash.

Oh for shit's sake...
Can you imagine the world's biggest poot-butt
having a male heir to his legacy?

He doesn't even have a single "real man" in his
inner circle to give him real world, real man point of view and context to the fucked up policy he's pursuing because he's an anti-American idealogue who's smooth delivery caused so many to cream their panties because they finally found "one" who wasn't an actual child of America's legacy?

"He's not like those other guys..."
(Do the people who say this when they think no churls are around, actually have any real context for this line of thinking?")

If Obama had a son?
Lol... Can you imagine taking "how to be a man" lessons from Dear Leader Daddy, Eric Holder, Bill Ayers, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Rahm Emanuel?

"No No No little Sparkle-Fart! To pee, you must squat! Standing is too aggressive and threatening, non-inclusive and even racist!"

Anon 15:00 bail is set with the seriousness of the crime, background of the individual and the likely hood of him skipping bail. It's more than likely a felony amount of damage given that repairs arent made on the street like some ghetto taxi and the design and materials are one of a kind not some store bought chinese product. If you think bail is excessive post it and take the P O S home with you till his next court date, and leave him there while you go to work to feed him.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course, but...

"How difficult is it to stay off of a piece of sculpture that doesn't explicitly invite you to climb on it?" -- SCC

Could have maybe designed something that people would be invited to climb on -- "interactive," as the Rahms and Redmoons would say -- but when some drunk toppled off and split his noggin on the cement, there'd be another lawsuit.

You can't win these days.

Me, I'm still laughing about the dogs peeing on the convenient nine-foot cast-iron Abramowicz monstrosities -- those headless, armless torso things. Now there was "interactive sculpture!"

It was Icarus in Greek mythology, not Darius. Darius wouldn't even make a decent size pimple on a good winged-horses ass. Speaking of pimples, and smaller ones (pimps, for short), has anyone heard anything from Barry or Eric regarding the witch-hunt, er, oops- I meant "investigation", about the Ferguson shooting?

As a sponsor of a horse, I can tell you the sponsorship was a minimum of $3k plus $1k to the artist for supplies.

Oh, no. You hit No. 1 and No. 2 already.

If you catch No. 3 here, little severed hamster skeletons, possum skulls and so forth stashed in cigar boxes under the bed, we got a genuine serious problem with ramifications for future expansion of the scope and hunt for bigger and bigger game -- like any intoxicated female who weaves past the Death Castle on her way to the next party. Or maybe just the guy who mops the floors around there.

Wait... wooden wings? Seems pretty short-sighted for an item just out on the street.

Should be metal - thick - welded on, bolted to the ground.... oh never mind... I get it - scrappers would steal it in 30 seconds after it was planted on the sidewalk...

So what to do? What to do? Yeah - make it out of something they don't want - like WOOD! Yeah, but better put a sign on it to keep people off so it doesn't get broken... yeah, that'll work.

NOT!

..or, as expressed by a wide variety of offenders when hauled up and confronted regarding a wide variety of offenses,

"Ees no like I keel someone."

Trayvon Martin -- Obama's foster-son-by-vague-photographic-similarity -- had just purchased "sweet tea and Skittles" before he got busy beating George Zimmerman's head on the pavement.

Most recent one in St. Louis who got himself justifiably shot dead -- after turning on police and discharging 3-4 shots at them from a 9mm pistol found on the scene -- "had just bought a sandwich at a shop across the street not 10 minutes before," according to CNN.

Teddy bears and yellow ribbons and candles -- Dia De Los Muertes-style, as even CNN is beginning to notice -- were instantly set up around the hapless store. Then the curses and rocks began to fly.

We've been belabored at great length by the conventional, lickspittle media about the alleged "Food Desert" -- as graphicaly illustrated by a Chicago-based violent parolee who made it all the way out to Indian Head Park not to purchase fruit, but to commit a burglary which culminated in the disgusting, savage murder of a teenage girl, for which he is now serving 160 years -- but what is this emerging theme? "He be eatin', so he cain't be doin' no wrong with he free hand."

The "Food Defense?"
