What really gets me is he carves their names into a structure and adds the date. The date was 23... As if 23 means anything to a structure that was built by people who were around in the actual year 23.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They would have written XXIII.
The best part of this is that they signed their names and filmed it. Like, if you're going to commit a crime, maybe don't document it? idk
Looks like it might not have been filmed the actual couple doing it, but by a bystander. They're being told off for it, as the guy does it, too.
Still, these people are culturally brain-dead, and unable to grasp the concept of respect.
Every Italian grandmother should be allowed to line up and spank him, with a frying pan.
Can we give him to ISIS? They could enjoy destroying historical structures together.
Italy's culture minister says a tourist who was filmed carving his and his girlfriend's names into the Colosseum in Rome should be "identified and sanctioned".
If only he left behind some permanent evidence of his identity.
Should've carved a penis. It'd be the same thing and the Roman's would approve.
Tbf, Italy (or rather Rome) did not take care of the Colosseum for the most part of its history. Heck, carving your name and/or a penis into it pretty much has a tradition now, and as much as I hate destruction of historical or cultural objects the Colosseum is probably one of the monuments where it hurts the least. That still doesn't make it legally or morally right, but it's not as bad as it could be.
The guy who filmed it said they talked to a guard about it and they didn't seem to give a fuck..
So if the angry officials actually care they should probably be funding better guards and training for them.
Shit like this makes me embarrassed to be an American.
Nobody said he was American?
