(Republican Party News) – According to a report from the folks over at The Western Journal, the Lincoln Memorial was shut down for a few hours on Saturday after a group of college students decided to come along and trash it. Because nothing screams having a good time like destroying public property, right?
Georgetown University held its senior ball Friday evening. Several hundred of the school’s students capped off their evening by getting together at the Lincoln Memorial to watch the sun come up, according to a report from Fox News.
A few students enjoyed a dip in the Reflecting Pool.
When the party was over, the whole monument was littered with broken bottles and spilled wine. Gee, what a way to show respect for such an important American landmark. This perfectly showcases the lack of respect younger generations have for our history and heritage.
Hundreds of drunken children of privilege from Georgetown university trash the Lincoln Memorial closing the site and swim in the reflection pool

The National Park Service then announced the delay in allowing access to the memorial.
“The Lincoln Memorial is closed this morning following a local university graduation celebration that left litter, broken bottles and spilled wine and champagne covering the steps,” the statement said, according to the report from Fox.
Thanks to our facilities staff for the quick clean up this morning. The Lincoln Memorial is open. We appreciate your patience.

The memorial was then reopened around 11 a.m.
“Thanks to our facilities staff for the quick cleanup this morning. The Lincoln Memorial is open. We appreciate your patience,” the park service stated. Many individuals have come out and said the college should pick up the tab for the cost of the cleanup.
Make the university pick up the cost of the clean up if you know for sure which university it is .should have published the name of the university as well and embarrass them

“The sunrise celebration is a tradition at Georgetown, which held its graduation ceremony on Saturday, according to The Washington Post,” the Western Journal reported.
“We are monitoring the concerning and disappointing activity at the Lincoln Memorial,” the college went on to say in a statement.
They then attempted to try and distance themselves from the mess their students left at the memorial.
“While Georgetown is one of several institutions celebrating graduation ceremonies this weekend, we have had no University-sponsored events at or around the Lincoln Memorial. We expect all members of our community to be responsible citizens of our campus and our city and be respectful of the history and institutions of Washington, D.C,” the college statement read.
Unbelievable.
Just think. These kids are now entering the real world. Many of them will be performing important tasks essential to making our society function. If they can’t even clean up after themselves, just imagine how horrible they will be at their jobs?

LIBERAL SPOILED ASSHOLES!!!!! WHAT DID YOU EXPECT THE COLLEGE PROFESSORS TEACH THEM WHAT THEIR TOLD FROM DEMOCRATS. RESPECT NOTHING WE WILL GIVE YOU EVERYTHING FOR NOTHING. THIS GENERATION OF YOUNG MEN WILL BE THE WORST GENERATION EVER. HOPE WE NEVER NEED THEM TO FIGHT A WAR THEY ARE ALL WEAK AND FEABLE CREATED BY HE LEFT. GOD HELP US
Right on Robert!!!!!
I’m starting an army of senior citizens who will go to the homes of college kids and dump trash on their lawns. Who’s with me?
Pick me…please!!
Students like this have been taught by their teachers that America is an awful place and not to be respected, nor is it’s history. Funny thing. I am pretty sure if students did this in a place like China they would be identified and arrested and then locked up for a few years. Maybe they should re-think that hatred of America and be grateful they live HERE.. Meanwhile I do think Georgetown should be billed for this. They can afford it, but are free to bill all the individuals of their graduating class for their share.
Looks like a bunch of left liberal losers!!! Total reflection on these liberal colleges and what they let go on
without accountability !!! They should have stepped up!!! These idiots will likely follow through with
their non respectful ways in life!!! So here comes the next line of destroyers same as the democratic
leadership!!! Hey after school run for office to become rich and destroy our country as the ones before
you have been doing!!! You don’t have to worry the rest of your party and the mainstream media has
your back!!!!! Feel proud of yourselves now????? Everyone of you that participated in this should spend
some time in a rough military boot camp to learn some respect!!!!! These colleges are really turning out
some winners now aren’t they????????? Not all but this bunch is a perfect example of failure on display!!
What a disappointment……..but leaders of the left look at what you are creating..make you feel good ???
