27. It's even worse than what's reported in the article
It was widely reported, both in postings from first hand accounts and in the mainstream media, that he accomplished this by attaching a chain and bar to the back of his truck.

In other words, this wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision. He took the time to plan it out, then took more time to rig his truck to do the most amount of damage possible. He didn't just get pissed off as he happened to be driving by.

To answer your question, I'm not sure exactly how this was meant as a tribute to the fallen. Maybe it wasn't. Maybe he just hates American flags ... or symbols of Christianity ... or the soldiers who died in Iraq. You can never tell with these types.
