The Indy Star is reporting that 24 protesters have been arrested after they spray painted the State House. They were part of a group protesting the I-69 expansion. These idiots don’t seem to understand that’s my house they’re vandalizing. I don’t care what you’re mad about, you don’t vandalize the State House. It’s a nice piece of architecture, and it’s the heart of my state.
Update 6/6/05: The Indy Star has a follow up article basically recapping the story and noting that “Roadless Summer Campaign” the group sponsoring the protest officially denounced the spray painting. “”A couple individuals took things into their own hands and engaged in vandalism,” Martinez said Sunday. “It was out of the hands of organizers.””
Good news: You got your media attention. Bad news: Your position is now associated with spray painting the State House. Guess they should’ve gotten their pockets lined by big money sponsors and bought commercials and lobbyists like anyone else.
