Vandalism in a Book

This is quite lit­eral (par­don the pun). My wife and I went to Barnes and Noble on Sat­ur­day to get some books. One of the books she wanted was the book on Sarah Palin, sim­ply titled Sarah: How a Hockey Mom Turned the Polit­i­cal Estab­lish­ment Upside Down.  We bought that book, as well as a few oth­ers that we wanted.

It wasn’t until we got home that we dis­cov­ered an awful truth:  There are idiots that don’t respect other people’s work.  Her book had writ­ing on the “Acknowl­edge­ments” page.  This is what it said:

If you believe this crap, you’ll believe anything.

Why do peo­ple have to dis­re­spect someone’s work?  Why — if they want to van­dal­ize some­thing — can’t they van­dal­ize their own prop­erty?  Or if they want to destroy the book — buy the darn thing!  Then you can write on it all you want!
