    How outrageous and despicable.

    "A statue, depicting the iconic image of a World War II sailor kissing a nurse in Times Square on V-J Day, was vandalized overnight In Sarasota, Florida, roughly a day after the death of the veteran captured in the photograph dubbed "Unconditional Surrender.""

    They were discussing this on Fox tonight with the conservative woman woman and the #metoo women and the host and the conservative woman were quoting from both the sailor and the nurses interviews on the matter. The sailor was actually with his finance' and they had just come out of a show where they had just announced the unconditional surrender of all German forces. War in Europe was over. He spotted the war nurse and they looked at each other with that "we don't have to go back it's over" and they kissed in CELEBRATION. And the nurses said the similar story, no where does she say it was an ASSAULT, it was a spur of the moment "we did it".
    Yet the #metoo woman tried to make the case that she didn't REALLY know she was being assaulted and if she were as "aware" as woman are today she would not feel as she did when she did the interview.

    Just absurd and the links to which the "progressive" left will go to. To take such an iconic, memorial, totally innocent celebration in our history where we all came to together in a common cause to a sexual assault is just sad.

    Silly people who don't understand history.

    This is how people are being trained to think now.

    It was an outrageous and despicable sexual assault, yes.

    Free speech is a b*tch sometimes...

    You basic liberal of today has at least one or two issues which will trigger them into destructive or even violent behavior. Just look at PETA, Greenpeace, the Dakota pipeline vandals, the people who burn down construction sites, BLM, and now the poundmetoo movement. Can a progressive group be named that isn't destructive or violent?

    Police are looking for an unattractive, overweight female (they think), with a high and tight multi color hair cut, gauged ears, and multiple piercings/tattoos. Approach subject with caution, may be armed with deafening 'REEEEE's', pepper spray, or a padlock in a sock.

    That (so called) female you described is just following the footsteps of its protesting mother...

    That frumpy look of yesterday is out though.

    Violence is drummed into the heads of the children of the Democrats. Hate is served at dinner time.

    It's quite funny because in the past (in fact even today), it was more religious fundamentalist which tended to commit such acts as attacking work of art.

    It's very interesting to see that movement emerge, because we tended to see the wish to controle morality as a monopoly from religion. Yet, in the west, many progressive act in a totalitarian way (to controle the movies, the arts, the laws, the education, totalitarian in the sense they try to controle every aspect of the society, not that they open camps like the nazi or the communists).

    However no morality totalitarism lasted, they should learn about the history of Savonarola.

    Feminists are just miserable people. They become unhappy with their own life then decide to attempt to spread their misery to others.

    Actually a great political gesture, shows how ridiculous #MeToo has become.

    The one holding the sign is what happens from generational inbreeding combined with liberal brainwashing from childhood

    I think that in some ways it makes it more of an iconic figure and also would not be surprised if it's discovered that the graffiti was written sarcastically, not from a metoo supporter.

    Of course they are. What man, who can actually call himself a man, be married to a raving lunatic who thinks he will rape her at any moment? I'm sure theres a lot of love and trust in those relationships, hehe=)

    I was thinking exactly this when the photo came on the news. These days itd be sexual assault and a huge scandal.

    That kiss definitely falls under the legal definition of sexual assault today (at the milder end of the spectrum but illegal all the same) and could even have done so at the time (however unlikely any conviction would be). It’s certainly morally questionable. Imagine what would have happened if it had been a black sailor or he’d kissed a random man in the same way.

    That said, this was entirely the wrong time and method to make that point. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

    In the interview mentioned in the show I cited the nurse said it was "wonderful".
