A dead whale washed up on the beach in AC May 1. Someone, or a group of people felt that spray-painting graffiti on the carcass was cool. It was stupid, immature and disrespectful. I read now that this is being investigated, in an attempt to locate the offenders. Why? While it was reprehensible, they spray-painted a dead animal. Unfortunately, our society does very little to foster respect, self responsibility or maturity. Does anyone really think that wasting time and resources to find those responsible is going to be productive?
