On her way home, Nelson noticed that Trump = Plague had already been smudged away.
*sad trombone sound*

I get your point, but when a leftist has it happen to them, it’s so rare, I enjoyed it a little, sorry.

Sounds very unlikely, and suspect.

I dare ya... Go write Obama = #igg#r...
Talk to me about free speech.
Besides, free speech doesn’t mean I get to paint, chalk, mark up property that is NOT mine.
This “victim” is a grandstander.

First lie of the story. With or without quarantines she needed to be arrested.

Who carries pink chalk with them when they are going out to "run a few essential errands"?

Liberal or not, this was BS!
She was writing on a temporary plywood barrier closing up a building construction area...........

I don’t deface any body’s property. And I lived in NYC for a long time before moving out. I am not fond of graffiti writers. They are a plague. They deface everything.
To: Lurkinanloomin
I agree. To picture some granny-aged, arrogant lib get busted pulling an immature teenage stunt is somewhat satisfying.
And who goes out anywhere in public w/o a picture ID? She created her own mess.

When i run errands, essential or not, i have never stopped to chalk a political message on someone else’s sidewalk or property. I also have never carried a piece of chalk with me running errands.
The two are mutually exclusive.

This seems to be a case of someone getting the government they deserved, per the aphorism. Let’s hope it will be self-correcting.

Why do you doubt this upstanding citizen. Surely you also, like all of us, always carry pink chalk when you leave your house to run essential errands.

The probability of someone watching you is directly

What would have been the appropriate response if this was over the top? I am with you in regards to graffiti.
