Police don’t have much to do in Martinez California.
To quote Nanzi Pelosi, “People are going to do things.”
My daughter shared a picture of roadkill the other day with a “get well soon” balloon attached to it.
Vandals? LOL!!!!!
Last month in Baltimore, chalk messages written by elementary students on their school's walls in support of the Black Lives Matter movement were power-washed away by adults.
Tire marks were left across a Black Lives Matter mural in uptown Charlotte in early June.

What goes around, comes around.
It’s a reverse defacement of a defacement.

Partisan Media Shills update.
When did they start calling a slogan a mural?
