George Floyd A George Floyd mural in Houston was defaced with a racial slur overnight Thursday, a little more than a day after the former police officer who kneeled on his neck was found guilty of murder in Minnesota.

Someone spray-painted the slur followed by "lives don't matter," in a warping of the name of the Black Lives Matter movement.

"Let me tell you something, and I want everybody to understand: Ignorant people with bad hearts and bad motivations — do not give them the power. Don't give them the power," Houston Police Chief Troy Finner said Thursday.

Is there anyone who can translate Orwell to English so that I can understand what the slur was?

"Ignorant people with bad hearts and bad motivations - do not give them the power."

Too late for all that, eh Chief?

with all other hate crimes like this being FAKE (done by blacks themselves). I will treat this as fake until I see real evidence proving otherwise.

My surmise would be a variation of “negro lives don’t matter”.

Anyone know LeBron’s whereabouts? He has experience in these matters, painting racial slurs on his own garage.

I wonder if there has been a study of how many “hare crimes” have been perpetrated by the victim class... I know three on campus here in the last 6 years alone.

Deface Floyd George. Bad. Tear down statues of real heroes. Good.

Just like the black church that was torched with the ‘n’ word spray-painted on the side — that was not done by a white person. But the press milked it for all it was worth before the guilty person was found, and of course that bit of news didn’t get much coverage at all.

It wouldn’t surprise me. If we never hear about it again, then that is pretty much a dead giveaway.

Now what do you think is happening, you are told to shut up and sit down or we will come after you at your home, your kids school, your employment, your are called racist and must atone for being white and must be punished along with your children, what do you think is happening. This will only get ugly as they keep pushing prodding poking demanding harassing and continuing to make us an enemy

Curious if this is in an area in which a white person would go unnoticed especially if they were defacing a mural like this.

Don’t think anyone from Negros did it...

The correct term is... damn, what’s that country in Africa?
Ah Niger.

And these kind of things are happening on a epidemic level in 2021 and they're rising. Fake hate crimes on blacks (by their own kind to get attention like a cheap whore).
