How did that cost 1.6M?

More of that garbage. This one says "It's MY Land", in Spanish. This is seditious balkanization and should be crushed. These murals should be "spiffed up" real nice and clean-like, IMHO:

Note Che Guevara in there and some Brown Beret/La Raza chick and dude below that.

Check this clearly COMMUNIST DRIVEL being painted up there in San Dieto, on Obama Administration federal tax dollars!

"Camarillo said she's paying close attention as her friends come back to paint. "It's really amazing. I've learned so much," she said. "Because though I was here, I've been here since day one, I wasn't actually standing there with the artists and watching them paint back then. It was just, you know, happening, and 'Yeah, that's cool.'" It's a complicated thing to invite artists with four more decades of experience under their belts to revisit work they made in their youth. Should the artist just repaint the same lines he painted in the 1970s, or bring to the table new techniques, new colors? The new Chicano Park could look significantly brighter and more modern than the old one as the restoration continues. The mural called "Mujer Cosmica" is a good example. The 1975 version features a woman painted white in the center with words and phrases like "ALLENDE" and "VENCEREMOS" written in capital letters all over her arms, legs and torso. But the newly painted version includes other words and phrases in a more modern scripted tattoo style, phrases like "BARRIO LOGAN SI SE PUEDE" and "VIVA LA RAZA." In place of "AMOUR" on her chest is the word "LIBERTAD." The new version fleshes out the color and shading of her skin and the background, retaining the original concept but appearing quite different."

Note. Salvador ALLENDE, the MARXIST leader of Chile who was ousted in a patriotic coup in 1970. And "Venceremos", the battle cry of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, taken up by the Sandinistas in Nicaragua and Hugo Chavez' Socialist United Party of Venezuela.

Enemy within folks. Enemy within.

In fact, the phrase "Viva La Raza" could be construed as a federal hate crime, as it is racist in nature, and yet is federally funded. There would be a clause I am sure to prohibit this. This would be like the Feds financing a Klan mural in Louisiana saying "White Power!"
