Vandals destroy sand castle!

I love that people ask "why would they do this?"

I'm going out on a limb here, but I think it's because young guys are assholes. Anybody who's lived outside a cave for a few years knows this.

Could have been a form of architectural criticism. It was a pretty bland design.

The builders should have anticipated this and installed booby traps. Maybe a landmine in honor of Princess Di.

I also like the video footage being described as "a disturbing scene", as if they're molesting children. A couple of idiots knocking down a sandcastle is many leagues removed from "disturbing".

That's why I posted this in the humour section. Yeah, those kids are shit sticks for destroying something made to help raise funds for terminally ill children, but it's the reporting of the story that's hilarious.

Ah, but didn't they say it was to raise money for sick children?

Who the fuck is going to pay money to see a sand castle? I can think of at least 7 ways to raise money that are better than "look at our sand castle."

Um... I think it was more of a sponsorship idea, like walkathons.

Ahh..well my bad then. I should have known that but it stills seems kind of lame.

A living porn tableau would raise a lot more money. And no young hoodlum would dare deface that.

I just don't see why they're going to be so upset about something as unstable as a sand castle getting destroyed. They left it out overnight, would they cry if the rain ruined it? I realize the intent is what is so disturbing to these people, but maybe they should have put it in a safer place.

I thought the same thing. A high wind could have done the same job.

Fixed.

Well what else should they report about? Maybe the fact that Taleban has now officially recaptured most of southern Afghanistan, but who cares about that?

High tide, was arrested this morning on related charges. CNN asks the question "are we experiencing a crime wave?". We cross over to Wolf Blitzer to stare in wonderment at his beard.

Nothing lasts forever. If anyone can appreciate that, it is a group of terminally ill children. Quit whining about having to rebuild a sandcastle when the kids you are building it for have been fighting off the grim reaper on a daily basis. Besides, these vandals just brought more attention to Camp Sunshine than any record breaking sandcastle ever would. National news coverage + sick kids = Money!

And we all know that sand castles are SO hard to rebuild - that's a whole 30 minutes out of their day. And CNN is wasting time on this?

Oddly enough, this happened in my hometown. They don't get a lot of exciting news in Maine, so this counts as "local color."

The sand king and queen did not survive. When they're caught the perpetrators will be charged with sand regicide and will be sand hanged and sand quartered.

Can't decide between Guantanamo or suffering the fate of Nikki/Paulo from Lost as the most fitting punishment for these 2 geniuses.
