A large sculpture of a donkey that was designed to be a Democratic symbol was destroyed in a Maine town overnight Saturday after someone set the structure ablaze. Rep. Seth Berry described the incident in Bowdoinham as “an act of arson and of political terrorism" after the traveling donkey, which was named Mr. H, was set on fire at around 2 a.m. on the property of Theresa Turgeon, a former select board member. “Mr. H took two full years to build,” Berry, who serves under the Democratic Party, wrote on Facebook. “He was larger than life, perhaps 7 feet tall

I can't put a Trump sign on my lawn or car for fear of it being damaged or keyed in the case of thecae, and it is dangerous to eat in restaurants for fear of BLM marauders grabbing my food and drink, and yet THIS is an act of political terrorism?

So ugly that a real donkey may have torched it.
Did the trailer burn, too?

Isn't it just a sign of the Democrats' legacy of racism and they're burning it instead of pulling it down?

What it was, was a mostly peaceful protest. No one was hurt, there's insurance.

It was to protest the Democrat history of supporting slavery and continued subjugation of black Americans.

Either A: The pushback has started, or B: this was staged by the "victims" themselves.
Be8ng that this act of "political terrorism" happened in Maine, Im going with option B.
When burning down republican campaign offices, assasinating or assaulting republicans or destroying their property gets called political terrorism, then and only then will my give-a-crap meter move off of zero.

Obviously a False Flag operation.
The Dems staged it so they could blame the Republicans.
It has to be Dems. There aren't Republicans in Maine

Likely spontaneous combustion from the democratic symbol being forced to represent the Democrat Party, the pressure just got to much. At least it was very peaceful in Bowdoinham.

Oh, that's harsh. Did Prometheus pay it a visit? Is its ass ash, or merely ashen? In Old Testament times the fire could have been from heaven, but not now, and that kind of narrows it down. It was someone with a MAGA hat, perhaps Juicy Smollier's Nigerian hirelings. They'll do anything for money.

The Antifa(sshats) in Portland who shot a guy to death for wearing a MAGA hat ... that was political terrorism. The guy who shot and almost killed Steve Scalise on the baseball field was political terrorism. The nightly riots, lootings, and burning of businesses being conducted by BLM / Antifa are political terrorism. Maybe the burnt donkey was extreme art criticism.

it's "political terrorism" when it happens to a dem but it's justified when it happens to a non-dem. makes sense, I guess.

There are a number of Bernie-Bots in Maine that aren't in a very good frame of mind about the Dems...again.

Sounds like peaceful protest to me. Isn't that the wording for burning things down now.

The clumsy 'sculpture' was about what you would expect from an insane rat. The world of art is richer for this thing being gone.

I am thinking Mrs. O'Leary's cow did it, but in all seriousness, that is one vote the Dimocrats will have difficulty getting by the ballot counters (not impossible, just more difficult).

Hey, whoever did it, please stay quiet.
Perhaps the donkey didn't want to identify as a donkey any more. It identifies as an elephant now.

The irony here is off the charts. I don't support destruction of this kind, but I have to say that the democrats have brought it on themselves. After all, our side is just going to play by your rules democrats. You set up the playing field, some of us are just joining in the mostly peaceful fun, right?

Sounds like my Maine peeps have finally had enough of all the incomers from Massachusetts who have just about wrecked the state. To borrow a phrase, it isn't my mother's Maine anymore.

Dems don't bat an eye when restaurants, car dealers, jewelry stores, elaborate statues, and police facilities are burned to the ground. But have a stroke when their donkey sculpture goes up in smoke.
