A Texas family woke up last Wednesday to find their two cars lit on fire, and “Trump 20” spray-painted on their home after putting a “Black Lives Matter” sign on their yard.
Jayla Gipson and Charles Crawford, who are black, told WFFA they suspect the sign may have triggered vandals to attack their home in Little Elm.
“That sign was in my yard for less than two weeks and then all of a sudden we get a tragedy like this,” Gipson said.
“I would have preferred they just take the sign. But to set the house on fire? That’s going way too far.”
Gipson’s 21-year-old son first made the discovery when he smelled smoke during a midnight trip to the bathroom on Dec. 9, NBC News reported.
The couple then rushed to find their Nissan Optima and Kia Forte torched in their driveway.
They also noticed “Trump 20” spray-painted on their garage door, and the “Black Lives Matter” sign on their yard defaced with the same red spray paint used on her home.
“It’s definitely a hate crime,” Gipson told NBC News.

All crime is a "hate crime"
The Orwellian "Thought Police" continue their run thru our culture...
Another fake hate crime.
Was the Go Fund Me account opened before the fire started?
Waiting to see if the TX Attorney General declares that fake hate crimes and insurance fraud will no longer be prosecuted because they disproportionately impact blacks.
Utter BS.....
Want to bet that the couple was behind, (2-6 months), on the car payments.
True. And Violence begats Violence.
“Jayla Gipson and Charles Crawford, who are black, told WFFA they suspect the sign may have triggered vandals to attack their home in Little Elm.”
Prepare for jail, you two.
“...when he smelled smoke during a midnight trip to the bathroom...”
“He who smelt it dealt it,” as they say in the fart biz.
Red Flag.
Double BS.
Normal for a particular racial group, of a certain socioeconomic cohort.
Might want to check the garage for a used can of spray paint........
Looks like a pretty run down neighborhood, doubt there's any angry Trump crackers living there.....
Kid wanted a cooler car?
Possibly the work of some very sick unknown person but by historical trend... self-arson until proven otherwise.
Just another hoax.
I’ll wait for the police report; more importantly, the insurance company fraud inspector.
If at all possibly true, which it isn’t, then you take my MAGA hat, I take your BLM sign and one up you, your car too.
