REPORT: City Begins Removing ‘Black Lives Matter’ Mural(RuhRoh)

The City of Fayetteville, North Carolina, began with the official removal of a Black Lives Matter (BLM) mural Monday.

The mural was first placed in the summer 2020 after nationwide BLM protests in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota. City leaders voted unanimously to allow the mural. It was an attempt to help with the BLM protest and to add more art to the historic district, ABC 11 reported.

Because of the history of the Market House, a petition that garnered more than 117,000 signatures for complete removal was obtained in June of 2020. This was enough for mayor Mitch Colvin to call for an open discussion for the community to share their thoughts on the future of the Market House, WRAL reported.

Pretty sure they meant more than 117,000 racis' signed up to have it removed. Should go off without a hitch.

Apparently rioting black people are no longer needed. And Andrew Cuomo says New York should start reopening.

Election must be over.

And why not? It’s chief objective, to spur anti-Trump attitudes, was to help Biden. Watch as NYC and other places follow suit.

Virtue signal has now been turned off as it’s no longed needed. Black Lives don’t matter now.

True.

However, the chaos that Democrats created and spurred on, will eventually come for them. Just watch.

THEN they’ll be talking all “law and order” etc.

Hopefully, people are too scared of COVID-19 to participate in going out in public and to events. Sadly, it will be conservatives who will be indirectly helping the politicians out of their respective rabbit holes.

Good. Glad to hear perhaps one of these monstrosities will be removed.

I used to think so, but now I believe they ill just declare riots by the left never happened. Snopes will fact check and find it mostly true. The NYT will report it was a Trump under cover operation.

They already say that now. It’s just to the point of “there was no violence” (recall they said that DURING the destruction) and what violence occurred was the police’ fault or Trump supporters trying to make them look bad.

The media is trying to tell us we are in a minority if we oppose this progressive cr@p. Not so.

You have to be pretty stupid to work for Mini-Truth.

Maoist slogan graffiti = “Mural”

What a pant-load.
