That Hess memorial stone (I take it that it's at Eaglesham?) is a new one. The original one was just an inscribed block lying almost flush with the ground. Members of the Anti-Nazi League smashed it live on national TV news about 15 years ago, in a protest about "Neo Nazis". Now, the stone had already been there for decades at that point.
Better still; the spokesman for the group- and guy who wielded the sledgehammer- is now a human rights lawyer, in the media daily for defending people's liberties.
Work that one out.........
