MISSION HILLS (CBSLA.com) — Several people stopped by a statue of Father Junipero Serra in a park across from Mission San Fernando on Thursday after a photo made the rounds on social media appearing to show the statue had been vandalized.
A picture circulating Facebook showed the statue spray-painted red and the word “murder” written on Serra in white.

All statues be racist!!!!!!sarc/on
The statue of Saint Joan of Arc, in New Orleans, has already been hit.
well, this could go both ways. Indigenous owned slaves. Some conducted genocides on pre-existing people. Some were torturing murderers. Indigenous Mexicans were Aztecs and Mayans, who were murderers and headhunters for games for their amusement. They had slaves, too. We need to get rid of all traces of Aztec and Indian culture. And blacks come from slave-holding countries that continue to practice slavery. Gotta get rid of black culture. And eskimos forced their elderly out on iceburgs to die. There goes Eskimo culture. What has Canada done? they just sit there up north. Gotta get rid of their culture for just sitting. By the time the ball stops bouncing, nothing will be left to prove an enlightened man ever existed.
I had a conversation with a Christian Brother this afternoon. He is not even worried about all this going on. Ad he said, there has to be something to happen to the US to cause it to give in to the Anti Christ. He believes this is well orchestrated to bring about the bloodiest Civil War the world has ever seen, and it will spill out into Central American, Canada and possibly South America, and all the lines will become blurred as everyone is killing everyone over food and water, and the UN will simply choose to eliminate both continents through some kind of germ warfare that will make in habital again if a few years. I was stunned. He seemed so relaxed. He said we know where we are going. Why worry? The Left wing is of the this world, not of the Kingdom of God. They are the ones that lose. I realized he is correct. Democrats are tied to the physical world, and most Republicans are also. But Christians and Jews are tied to God. We are not of this world. He then said that Obama and the Democrats have created a shadow Government that they are putting in place to control the masses once everyone starts killing everyone. I looked that up and there appears to be a lot a sites on this but nothing concrete. Seems like a conspiracy theory. But I wouldn’t put it past them to do this.
LOL.
I don’t know how familiar you are with California history, but, at nearly 70 years old and being a fan of my home state’s history, California’s indians were merely peaceful hunters and gathers.
Very peaceful. No Mayans or Aztecs here!
It seems both illogical and improbable that only California Indians would be peaceful flower children, when there are thousands of Indian words for ‘slave’ and just as many for ‘war’. Several California Indian legends speak of slaughtering the ‘people who lived in the forests’ when they arrived in California, so peaceful they were also not. Besides the atrocities committed on remote gold miners and prospectors up and down the state, there’s this:
“While it is not uncommon for some textbooks to give the impression that the California Native Americans passively accepted the missions, Spanish domination, and conversion to Christianity, this was not the case. In fact, the initial reception of the Franciscans by the California Indians was anything but hospitable. Resistance to the Spanish Franciscans was organized by village chiefs and influential shamans and this resistance was expressed through attacks on both the Spanish soldiers and the Franciscan missionaries. ...In 1771, Indians attacked the San Gabriel Mission in the Los Angeles basin...In 1775, the Kumeyaay at the Mission of San Diego revolted, burning the mission...In 1776.. Indians attacked the San Luis Obispo Mission and set fire to the roofs...In 1785, Toypurina (Gabrielino) convinced Indians from six villages to participate in a revolt against the San Gabriel Mission. Toypurina was a medicine woman...In 1811, Nazario, a Mission Indian cook at the San Diego Mission... poisoned one of the priests. (a traditional Indian way to kill)...In 1812, a group of Indian converts at the Santa Cruz mission [revolted] ...In 1824 the Chumash at the La Purísima Mission revolted [with a force of 2000]...In 1828, Mission Indians, under the leadership of Yokuts chiefs Estanislao (Stanislaus) and Cipriano, revolted ...In 1830 [the Miwak revolted and stole Kit Carson’s horses]

“Before the colonial era, the 5 to 10 million Native people who lived north of the Rio Grande spoke over three hundred different languages and likely had thousands of different terms relating to slavery.”
” In the Southwest, the captive exchange networks born out of the melding of Indigenous and Spanish cultures endured until the 1880s.... In the Pacific Northwest, indigenous slavery likely expanded in both scope and severity from the late eighteenth century until the late nineteenth century, as trade rivalries for European goods intensified Indigenous warfare. “
They were not remotely near Aztecs, Mayans, murderers and headhunters. Your words.
p.s., I don’t really believe all Mexicans are Aztecs, but since some are known to show up to every darn protest with full Aztec gear with claims to ownership of ‘Atzalan’, I’m insisting they own the history of what they claim as ‘Atzalan’ - one of murder, genocidal slaughter for entertainment and, of course, slavery. Or they could stop calling themselves Aztecs and go back to the fascade of the peaceful victimized.
Aztecs, Mayans have absolutely NOTHING to do with California indians of that era!!!!
It’s not quite vandalism but the statue of Fra Serra on I280 used to regularly end up wearing a Stanford helmet.
