Lincoln Memorial defaced with explicit graffiti

[dukkha]

Authorities in the nation's capital are searching for a vandal after the Lincoln Memorial was spray painted with explicit graffiti early Tuesday.

The National Park Service said it was working to remove the graffiti after it was discovered at about 4:30 a.m., FOX 5 DC reported.

The graffiti, which was done in red spray paint on a column, appears to say “F*** law."

Silver spray paint was also found on a Smithsonian wayfinding sign on Constitution Avenue, according to the park service.

The monument preservation crew started cleaning up the tagged areas with a "gel-type architectural paint stripper safe for use on historic stone," and will continue to use the treatment until the graffiti is completely gone.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the U.S. Park Police at 202-610-7515.

why concern yourself with law, when you can riot and get what you want?

So, this might have just been some common vandal, rather than some Nazi who hates America...

When did the ANTIFA and the BLM become being called Nazis??

Do you think they were responsible for the vandalism?

That's unknown yet; but you are the one who decided it MIGHT be Nazis.
I was just putting two and two together.

This was the Lincoln Memorial, not the lee memorial.

I don't believe I ever said anything different.

when was the last time this happened? did you see the message -it's peculiar to endorsing rioting

conservatives aren't opposed to the law.....

And so it begins. Leftists are going to try and get rid of any white history.

That's just what you choose to believe .. but that isn't what it said. It said fuck law on a memorial to Lincoln, not exactly a right-wing hero.

A hero to Trump supporters just rammed a car through a crowd of protestors. Are you one of those who think that was lawful?

Beyond reading messages, the war has indeed begun.

That's just silly and demonstrates a serious lack of thought.

The VAST majority of those on this side of the war are WHITE .. and they aren't all 'leftist' .. who are also VASTLY white.

So your argument is that white people are looking to get rid of white history. That makes sense to you?

What they are getting rid of are monuments to America's vile and disgusting history that they should have gotten rid of long ago .. but along comes Donald Trump to remind them of their duty to get rid of monuments to evil.

WTF are you talking about "not a RW hero"- maybe not to Nazi's but Nazi's are to RW what Communists are to LW.
IOW's it's an extreme comparison either way.

Sure BAC- I endorse murderous homicide by vehicle
( I thought only TTQ would be insane enough to ask me that)

"Fuck law"= what else can it mean but endorsing a rule of non-law? (riots/chaos, etc)

Beyond reading messages, the war has indeed begun.

have fun -get your kicks. I want nothing to do with the shredding of America

Lincoln is part of the ugly past?

And yes there are plenty of self hating whites out there. I have a liberal friend, who goes around talking about how bad whites are, and need to be controlled. When reminded he himself is white, he claims to be ashamed...

Is that what we really want? People to be ashamed at how they are born, through no fault of their own. Sounds like something the SJW movement should be against.

Ask your white liberal friend if he wants to get rid of white people? I'm guessing he/she doesn't.

Nothing wrong with be ashamed of evil, no matter who does it. Americans have a LOT they should be ashamed of.

This is a needed maturation of the American people .. inspired by Donald Trump and his supporters.

Lincoln stands as a good symbol in a time of horror.
