You are celebrating the destruction of private property and the violation of the owners' first amendment rights to freedom of speech, who are supposed to be regarded as innocent of crimes until proven guilty in a court of law. Your sorry assumptions and prejudice do not excuse approval of an immoral act. I have no fellowship with this thirst for violence and destruction.
The Guidestones' ownership, as well as the land, were transfered to Elbert County's Board of Commissioner's control back in 1979. Given that the government is the owner, can we really argue that any First Amendment rights have been violated, since the right to free speech was not given to the Federal or State Governments, but to the People.
And in case you want proof Elbert county owns it, dor.georgia.gov lists the property tax website for Elbert as https://elbertcountyga.governmentwindow.com/. By going under Property Taxes, Search and Pay Property Taxes, and plugging in the address, 1031 Guidestones, into Property Address, we pull up the tax records for the Guidestones, who's deed names all come up as ELBERT COUNTY BOC, and all have a $0.00 tax bill, since they are government property.
False logic. The whole construction is a work of freedom of speech. It is like a statue, which is a reflection of the freedom of expression of its creator. Putting it under public control only means the public is responsible for its preservation. It does not confer any right by anyone to destroy property, private or public. You are just trying to rationalize your own primitive desire to destroy what others create, when that creation in no way infringes on your freedom. (Policies are a different matter, but are also a different thing.)
I don't agree with "Mein Kampf," for example, or "Das Kapital"---but that does not legitimize book-burning. Far from it.
I read it as a private construction. But even if it is a government legacy, the act is still an immoral destruction of property and a violation of freedom of speech. Your logic is no better than a common rioter.
I am perfectly familiar with how this country was formed. You are not familiar with the principles on which it was formed. Vandalism was not one of them. This is lost on you, since you have no refutation of the fact that this was immoral destruction of property and a violation of freedom of speech.

Nice concern trolling.
It's not "trolling" when it is the truth. Truth isn't so welcome when the finger points at you.
