Red, White and Black

An unknown artist has installed a rather patriotic looking piece off Casino Drive heading onto Charleston. A silver eagle which looks to be an old flagpole topper, with broken wings and black paint dripping down. Proudly seated atop a red and blue wooden platform, then affixed to the concrete median. With this Eagle facing The Strip and its back to old Downtown, what is the message here? Are we trying to read into something more, cuz it wouldn't be the first time. But more often than not, the misunderstanding of an art piece is usually more interesting than fact. Well in our experience anyway.
