    Got it. Vandalism is apparently okay so long as it is in the name of your political agenda. Read you loud and clear. I just disagree. I don't think the law stops mattering just because someone gets triggered. These lunatics are no better than the lunatics toppling statues. Same logic.

    We say the same about your liberal logic! Obama was very divisive when it comes to race relations, and Biden has made several racist remarks. Tell me, is hypocrisy a requirement to be liberal, asking for a friend?

    Respectfully, I do not think you "read me loud and clear".

    This vandalism "painting the streets" crap never should have been allowed in the first place. NOBODY should be granted permission to vandalize paint crap on our streets, especially not divisive, racially charged inflammatory crap like "Black Lives Matter". But now that your side allowed it, don't feign outrage when you see pushback.

    Again, it isn't vandalism if it is legal. They had permission. The yahoos with the black paint were the ones committing vandalism. Again, try reading the police statement. Whether or not you think it SHOULD have happened doesn't matter. The law isn't based on what you wish were true.

    I'm fine with "pushback" so long as it is legal, whereas you seem to think it is okay to break the law as long as your feel triggered. Again, exact same logic as the people toppling statues. "It shouldn't have ever been here! It's divisive."

    Regardless of your political side, if you think it is okay to commit vandalism like this, then you are on the same side as the rioters toppling statues.

    I am not condoning vandalism. But crap like Black Lives Matter never should have been allowed to be painted there in the first place. When politicians want to start playing divisive racially charged political games, you're going to see pushback. To feign surprise is naive.

    What if someone got a permit to paint "N[n-word]S SUCK" on one of your city streets? Would you be ok with it "since they had a permit"? I would not be ok with it. Hell no.

    There should be NO PLACE for divisive racially charged inflammatory crap like this to be allowed ---- from either side ---- period.

    Nothing I said had anything to do with "surprise." This event does not surprise me at all. Do you condemn the vandalism that these two people committed?

    You said you would and so far, no one has been able to post a racist quote from Trump.

    I condemn everyone who was involved with painting or repainting this street, but I especially condemn whatever hateful politician set the cycle in motion by allowing "Black Lives Matter" to be painted in the first place.

    Now, your turn ---- What if someone got a permit to paint "N[n-word]S SUCK" on one of your city streets? Would you be ok with it "since they had a permit"?

    I would not be ok with it. Hell no.

    Oh, some idiot will probably try to dredge up something out of context, like the "fine people" comment. Just wait.....

    The racist mural was offensive and had to go.

    Isn't it ironic that the left can use thousands of gallons of paint to graffiti up just about anything that will hold paint, tear down statues, burn buildings, loot, assault people and even murder them, but with this racist mural they draw the line.

    Like I said, if anyone finds the mural offensive, even if it's just one person, then according to the left it needs to be defaced, torn down and will be justification to riot and pillage.

    You especially condemn the ones who followed the law more so than you condemn the criminals. Interesting. Anyway, setting aside the fact that "Black Lives Matter" and "N[n-word]S SUCK" are not remotely equivalent, you don't have to get into hypotheticals. I can give you an even worse example. New Orleans used to have a monument celebrating the White League: a group of white supremacists who went on a murder spree and temporarily seized city hall. I was for its legal removal, but not its vandalism.

    All over the country we have monuments to a group of people who revolted against our country and formed their own so that they could preserve slavery and white supremacy . . . so, yeah, basically "N[n-word]S SUCK." I'm for their legal removal, but I don't support vandalism of them.

    Lol, you are preaching the exact same hypocrisy that you are criticizing others for having. That's just comedy gold.

    Pres Obama was speaking to the same systematic racism that blacks and young whites are protesting today.

    Trump on the other hand is pandering to the racist for votes, just look at his last 3 Klan rallies.

    Nice dodge :roll:

    But not surprising at all to see you and your side shirking any responsibility for the hate and divisiveness you are fostering in the first place.

    How very leftist to [figuratively] light a building on fire, and then complain if they get sprayed when the Republicans come to put the fire out.

    You obviously have no concept of what the Congressional Medal of Honor is, who qualifies for it , or badicallybanything about it.

    Didn't the Trumpocity once say that he should give himself the Congressional Medal of Honor ? Along with the peace prize of course.

    That would like watching Idiocy on parade.
