HUNTINGTON, WV (WOWK) — A video posted to Facebook shows a pick-up truck driver on Wednesday doing a burnout on the Pride crosswalk in Huntington.

The crosswalk and mural are at the intersection of 4th Avenue and 10th Street. Sassa Wilkes and more than 100 people helped bring the crosswalk and rainbow gemstone in the middle of the roadway to life over the weekend.

Huntington Police Chief Phil Watkins says the department is aware of the video and is investigating.

City of Huntington Communications Director Bryan Chambers says, “The Huntington Police Department is aware of the incident and is investigating the circumstances. Huntington Pride, a nonprofit organization, raised funds throughout the community to pay for the paint and hire the artist. However, the City will coordinate with Huntington Pride on any needed touch-ups of the art installation in the future.”

We are destroying statues of people who fought and died for our liberty but jailing people who mark up a mural PAINTED IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROADWAY! This reality is freaking bonkers.

Even stripes on a freeway
gotta be repainted now and
then.
Now throw in that christian
attitude associated with a 19
year old and the ability
to do a burnout.
What’s to be expected.
Burn a flag, do a burnout.

In some places it’s a felony to deface their road graffiti.

If you want to know who our masters are, see whose artwork you can’t improve with a burnout.

If one were to paint a mural of Jesus, and then someone came by and painted over it to over it up, that would not be a hate crime and the authorities would do nothing.

But if someone were to paint a mural of mad mo'hammed, that would be a hate crime, and the authorities would come by and paint over it to cover it up.

We’re being told to recognize and celebrate people on the basis of their sexual practices. ANYONE who identifies himself on the basis of his sexual practices is in fact a pervert
