Highest Point on Blue Ridge Parkway Sign Stolen

After watching the news video of the incident; it is apparent that is was vandals...

I am, however, amazed at the stupidity of the news-media (no surprise) when they stated there are only about a dozen ranger-police that monitor the entire parkway.

I mean really... why didn't that news station just go ahead and say to the idiots and vandals of the world... "Go ahead and commit your crimes because you are not likely going to be caught since we don't have enough officers to catch you!".

Geez... ::)

These are the same idiots that try to tell everyone what we will do in Iraq and Afghanistan.
