why on earth would they make a public statue with loose parts that can be stolen or abused--especially something like a spear? You could put your eye out with that. Or somebody else's eye.

Maybe because it was designed and made in a different time with different standards for behavior than those of today?

Lee brings up a valid point. If the top section is not recovered, I'm thinking this could turn out to be as good an opportunity as any to replace the King's spear with some alternative...

Ah yes, a time when everybody respected what wasn't theirs, actually smiled and said "aloha" at the passing human, and taking care of their kupuna. Now, it's nothing more than instant self gratification in whatever form they see fit. Becoming a sad sad world.

Student prank?
If that were so I think they would have reattached it in a more lowbrow offensive way. But kids these days, you never know...

No chance. The local kids know better and the exchange students aren't known to be vandals...

It'll surface, what is the point of doing something like that if noone knows you did it?
