I don't understand the defacing of a Lincoln statue. Didn't he free the slaves? And weren't the slaves mostly people of African descent? And aren't these people supposedly sensitive to and supportive of people of African descent? It doesn't make sense. A statue of Jefferson Davis I could understand (even though it's still wrong).
First, these people aren't great thinkers. Second, Abe was a Republican and Jeff Davis was a Democrat... not that many of these brainiacs probably know that. ;-)
