Peace prize bomb?

WTF? 

Today's City/Region front page has a story about a new Eugene Nobel Peace Prize memorial- The Nobel Peace Park. 2 acres within an existing (Alton Baker) park. It features a picture of the president of the Nobel Peace Laureate Project, John Attig:

"Dressed in a navy blue sweatshirt with "I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize" written across his chest....."


Whaaaat? 


The monument honors 24 Americans, 21 individuals & 3 groups, who have won the Nobel Peace Prize. There are 24 plaques, with recipient info on each. 


"The temporary plaque of President Obama has been damaged repeatedly."*

 But let's face it, President Obama is no Gandhi or Martin Luther King jr, when it comes to non violence.

* I  personally don't condone vandalism. Even a non-political to scale display of planets of the solar system, has been repeatedly vandalized, so that is a real problem in this area. Someone tries to do something nice & others feel obliged to trash it.
