Garbled he Says...
Ok, to make it clear and simple, what the big deal it's only a statue...will you consider it an act of blasphemy fit for the headlines, I will not.
And I did speak in ungarbled English if you please.

Hang on, it's only a statue of a Christian Saint, there's no need to put so much fuss on such a thing. It's a vandalism issue, fair enough, but is all this fuss being made simply because it's a "Christian" Saint. Should it have been a random statue or merely the wall on a condemned building will it have shot the headlines?
Probably not eh?

Well done!!!!!!!!!!!! Please ensure that this is not done again. Its a popular sport in Vittoriosa to throw paint to St Dominic Statue. The last time was pink. No frame ups here only ignorance at its peak. Is this all because the small domenican community does a very popular and also a religious feast
