It was a mural if it were sanctioned by the community; either painted after civic permission of some kind were granted, or on private property with permission. Anything else is graffiti and is a crime. You cannot “deface” graffiti, you can only add to it, or clean it up.

The ‘mural’ was in the middle of a street where cars will soon run all over it. Defacing?

True...and if you so much as breathe out of order where I work your career is over. That’s the stranglehold these degenerates have on the culture.

They don’t want their graffiti covered over. Weird.

Oh, I have been paying attention.

This is a lot of rerun from the 1960/70’S!

Been upside down since both parties swore in an ineligible Kenyan/Indonesian/British subject in direct violation of the Constitution.

We are going to need a lot of ropes and lampposts in the future.

These idiots and cowards are too dangerous and stupid to either fix, or trust.

I wonder what they would do if it was a black man and woman defacing this racist piece of crap.

Exactly.

How is defacing a poster worse than defacing and destroying a statue? From a speech perspective they are the same. From a property perspective the latter is much, much worse.

Sounds like she was protesting and exercising free speech to me.

In 2018, blacks killed 514 whites, while whites killed 234 blacks. (cases where the races are known). Blacks managed this more-than-double score with a population less than one-fifth that of whites. Doing the math:

Blacks kill whites at a per-capita rate 12 times the reverse.

And doing similar math for non-homicide violent crimes, where during a 4-year period (2012-15) blacks committed 85% of black/white interracial violent crimes:

Blacks commit violent crime against whites at a per-capita rate 31 times the reverse.

So the core BLM narrative of "Blacks living in mortal peril of white racism" is not just objectively false, it is basically the opposite of reality. Blacks pose far, far more real-world danger to whites than the reverse.

“a city-approved Black Lives Matter mural in Martinez, California,”

So see the city approved this but I wonder if they asked all citizens of all colors how they felt before they spent their tax money on it.

View point discrimination. Plenty of case law.
