One World Trade Center is getting its mouth washed out with soap.

A day after the Daily News exposed the racist and sexist graffiti inside a building that’s supposed to symbolize national unity, workers were ordered to clean the mess and paint over the filth.

Meanwhile, Port Authority police launched an investigation—and dispatched officers with cameras to the men’s rooms Monday to take pictures of the heinous scrawls. They’ll hit the ladies’ rooms in the still-under-construction building on Tuesday. …

The building is supposed to represent “national unity?”

That’s a new one to me.

Here I thought it was a building to encourage international trade, which is being destroyed by socialist policies and is one of the issues that is strongly dividing our nation.

Oh Lordy No, some construction workers wrote insulting graffiti in a restroom? What do these morons think happens on a construction site! And I like the comment from Tyson Patterson,a black construction worker, that he might get in trouble complaining. I have been on a lot of construction sites and what they show is mild! Also they appear to try and show a balance between races as far as graffiti, but far and away the whites are are the ones this cr*p is directed at!

I’ve been in public bathrooms and seen much worse. These people need to get a life. They can paint it away all they want but it will be back. It’s just the way things are now.

***It’s a “sad perpetuation of the hate that brought the towers down,” McDonald added.***

What a gross misunderstanding of the events leading to 9/11.

NYC has billions of graffiti words all over it. Getting bent out of shape and having the “word police” take pictures is just waaaay over the top and shows that the priorities of the city are totally out of whack.

You can get an abortion there no problem. Try and get your church that was destroyed in 9/11 rebuilt, no freaking way. But we’ll let a mosque be built not too far away and we’ll eve let it be named “The Victory Mosque” in arabic. You can’t defend yourself with a gun in NYC unless you break the unconstitutional law, and you can’t smoke in your car or apartment, and now you can’t get a stupid big gulp, and let’s all just ignore the huge section of the lower city that’s still not recovered from Katrina and the people down there are still going through winter. Everywhere libtards are looking to find ways to reduce the amount of time criminals serve, but you can’t defend yourself against them because everyone knows it’s the armed law-abiding people that make our cities dangerous.

I am so ready for Jesus to come back. He’s gonna come back and He’s going to give the wicked exactly what they believe they want. And it’s going to go downhill rapidly after that and spiral out of control until it’s true hell on earth. And like they are clueless today, they will remain clueless then and blame everyone but themselves.

A man’s ambition must indeed be small...
To write his name upon a sh*thouse wall...
But before I die I’ll add my regal scrawl...
To show the world I’m left with sweet f*ckall...

Tyson Patterson, a construction worker at the World Trade Center says, speaking out about the racial slurs could jeopardize his job. “I have to be political and pretend it doesn’t bother me.”

Why does it bother you? Are you ten years old?
