Probably gonna take a lot of heat for this one, but I don't think people should be damaging public toilets like this

friggin' good. this shitcunt did so much harm to the world and so many people will never be remembered in the world because of him. why the fuck should he be remembered fondly

UK: "Thatcher's grave is the largest toilet in Europe"
France: "Hold my Sauvignon blanc"
- The most respectable pissing contest.

I'm obviously against tomb profanation, but for reference, when people vandalised a Jewish cemetery, he stoked antisemitism and publicly supported the act. Pointing fingers at communists instead of his own followers which were, in the end, the perpetrators.
So, yeah, fuck that guy, and fuck respecting him and his cold bloated dead body.

Weeks? What took em so long lmao
- After reading the article, there initially was a security around the grave, it eventually was relaxed which allowed someone to do this. After this incident they restored it.
- They were too busy punching the Nazis that visited it beforehand.

Love to see it.

If his wikipedia page is anything to go by then this reaction is not surprising

French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau called the damage "an absolute abjection".
Yes, yes, we should be more respectful of the people whose core value is having no respect for anyone but themselves. People who will vandalise Jewish war cemeteries and spray paint the gravestones with swastikas, for example.

Absolutely despicable that it took this long

My eyes are dry.

Oh, no!
Anyway...

You have to admire the right's dedication to public toilet infrastructure.

Good i hope they do it again

The tomb was vandalised, but like how so? Did they just like smash the grave stone? Did they smash like the door of the tomb if it's more like a mausoleum? I'd like details please. Whatever it was keep up the good work!
- The article has the Twitter post that showed the picture.
  
  I don't understand why people make comments like this instead of just describing the picture or what happened.
  I went to the article didn't see any picture, and im sure as fuck not going to twatter.
  Thanks for letting us know there's a picture somewhere I guess.

Leave my pissing spot alone :(

Allons-y, repose dans la pisse !

lmao get wrekt

No rest for the wicked.
- No one mourns the wicked! Get him!

I wonder why...

I hope these freedom enjoyers took a massive dump on it.
- And leave DNA evidence?
  
  Clearly I haven't thought this through...
  I guess bring some horse shit for the job haha

La Pen died?
- The father yes, Jean-Marie. Marine is still alive though.

Good, fuck him.

After a short search, I can’t find the location of the gravesite… would love to also pay a visit!
