The Lincoln Memorial was vandalized with bright-red graffiti early Tuesday morning at around 4.30 a.m. Officials with the National Park Service (NPS) said the red spray paint appears to state [expletive] law on one of the memorials columns overlooking the National Mall. Another instance in silver spray paint was also discovered on a Smithsonian wayfinding sign in the 1400 block of Constitution Avenue.
Work to remove the graffiti is already underway using a mild, gel-type architectural paint stripper, according to the NPS. The gel wont affect the preservation of the memorials historic stone.
The crew will apply the treatment and let it set on the stone for approximately an hour, then rinse it with clean, potable water, according to the NPS. The process is repeated until all evidence of the graffiti is gone.
This isnt the first instance of vandalism on the Lincoln Memorial or other national monuments.
In July 2013, the giant statue of the 16th president was splashed with green paint on the left pant leg. The Washington Post reported that this was the first incident of vandalism on the monument since its dedication in 1922.

During Sturgis would be a great time for Antifa to fast rope down and spray paint something on Mount Rushmore. Lots of American loving leather wearing bikers might be waiting to have a discussion with them though.
Yeah, if you know anything about it!

ISIS was a nothing group in 2009. By 2011, it had grown to over 50,000, and was armed by the CIA. Who knew the Left Wing was so closely aligned with ISIS? And they have the same ideology

Sturgis. One yutz tried to hold up a liquor store there when the bike rally was taking place. After the bikers got done with him, he willingly surrendered to the police.
Sad day.
These are the same people that castigate the Three Fifths Compromise because to them it means the embryonic US thought blacks were only 3/5 the value of a white person.
So just what would be the reaction if a mob went around tearing down statues of the plagerizer, Martin Luther King?
Shankar = short for Chancre??
