This is pretty sick.....I think the gofundme should go toward finding the people and making them pay for replacing the statue. My guess these were people who are against Capitalism.....

Hate crime!. clownlivesma, oh forget it. The R.McDhouse is a charity, blocks away from the hospital where they house patients/families for free. I dont think parents and young people find it disgusting. Guessing it was teenagers but that would be profiling. Then again it could have been the Colonel or the Hamburgler.

It is a charity dedicated to the well being of children funded by Mcdonalds. Are you seriously mocking that?

Perceptive response.

I guess if Ronald McDonald was black Al Sharpton would be there right now and Obama's DOJ would be ponying up the money for a replacement as we speak in order to avoid the inevitable crush of protestors.

The Ronald McDonald house provides a valuable service for no charge to these families as they go through what has to be one of the worst times in their lives. What's wrong with people.

I'm not a huge fan of McDonald's but you have to wonder what kind of personality thinks this kind of behavior is clever or funny.

I think it was Wendy.

Yeah, she's cute, with those freckles and red pigtails, but you never know for sure.

You're probably right. She's the one. A proven bloodthirsty killer. Will Smith (agent J) of Men in Black saw right through her on the shooting range.

Yes, people who fail to read the article and don't understand that the statue was at the Ronald McDonald House which provides a FREE place to stay including meals for families of sick kids all over this country and many others. And yes, people who understand what this organization (RMHC) stands for and provides are happy to help with the GoFund me campaign. Surely seeing a vandalized statue is not in the best interest of sick children or their families.
