In Indianapolis, another sick act of cowardice and disrespect from the people who “support our troops:” Vandals target Canal Walk. (Hat tip: greenbear.)

Indianapolis, March 29 - Carol Helmus and her family got a big shock during their visit to the Canal Walk Tuesday afternoon, where vandals defaced public property. "We’ve been here a few times and never seen anything like this but it’s a shame, said Helmus.

Investigators believe the suspects hit the canal walls with spray paint late Monday night or early Tuesday morning. They sprayed names, symbols and even profanities against President Bush at the congressional medal of honor memorial. What’s worse is the damage to the two glass memorial panels which will cost thousands of dollars to repair.

The panels contain the names of soldiers, their rank and tour of duty. Police put up caution tape to keep people away from the broken glass.
