‘Who did this?!’: Someone put googly eyes on a historic Georgia statue. Police want answers.

The query sent out by officials from Savannah, Ga., was indignant and urgent.

“Who did this?!” the City of Savannah Government posted to its Facebook page Thursday.

“This” was an act illustrated by two photos: Somebody had placed “googly eyes” on a statue of Nathanael Greene, a Revolutionary War general buried in the city’s historic Johnson Square.

From afar, the craft-store stick-on eyes were barely visible. Up close, though, they rendered Greene’s monument almost comically alive.

Savannah officials seemed to acknowledge the effect, but they also tried to nip public reaction to it in the bud.

“It may look funny but harming our historic monuments and public property is no laughing matter,” city officials wrote. “In fact, it’s a crime.”

Take a fucking chill pill.

IK,R? Better than hanging someone from a tree in a public park. Besides which, those things peel right off, and a little IPA will remove the glue easily. If I ever wanted a ride to said state (not fucking likely, TYVM), I'd even accept plane fare and per diem to wipe their hero's crying eyes.

Homeland Security inspectors who made an unannounced visit to a private, for-profit immigration jail in California in May found major violations of federal detention standards, including cells with nooses dangling from air vents, detainees losing teeth from lack of dental care and one disabled inmate left alone in a wheelchair for nine days.

How long where they in this immigration detention center?   It seems to me, that losing teeth from a lack of dental care, takes some time to occur?   That this type of thing doesn't just happen overnight (or even in a year), nor is it remedied so quickly. 

I'm not trying to say that this particular place was properly caring for it's detainees, but something seemed a little fishy with this statement.

A hologram depicting Amy Winehouse, the British singer whose music, addictions and premature death dominated headlines, is expected to embark on a tour, according to Reuters.

Her father, Mitch Winehouse, told the news agency that the singer's hologram will be projected on stage along with her voice and a live band.

Seems like a prince of guy her dad.
