Yahoo News ^ | 10/7/20

Posted on 10/09/2020 8:49:00 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Police have asked the public for help identifying multiple drivers suspected of intentionally defacing a Black Lives Matter street mural in Springfield, Massachusetts, in September.

The Springfield Police Department shared several videos of drivers doing burnouts and leaving tire tracks on the words, which are painted near the Springfield City Hall.

Police said they have been investigating one incident from September 14 and two from September 20.

The Springfield Police Department said it requested a criminal complaint, with felony charges of defacement of real or personal property, for a suspect involved in the September 14 incident. Police said they were still investigating the other incidents. Credit: Springfield Police Department via Storyful

If you don’t want people driving on it, don’t put it in the street. Simple.

it’s a mural, you know, art executed on a wall, from the Latin murus.

Yes, words have meaning!

For weeks, I was following the news feed from my mountain-top redoubt, here on the other side of the world. All of the news outlets were constantly referring to "murals." What else was I supposed to think?

I guess dumping a load full of bovine excrement onto such a "mural" could then be considered an "installation," right?

Regards,

Let’s face it, at it’s core, BLM is a racist, political movement, masquerading as a civil rights movement. More gaslighting by the Demsheviks. How stupid is their base? Have the colleges produced unthinking, rabid dogs that buy this BS? It’s considered, by BLM, to be racist to say that all lives matter. Seems like dark times are approaching and that there can be no living with people who seek to exterminate your race, based on some perceived historical grievances. The race hustlers (OBAMA, Farakhan, etc) have lit the fuse for the next civil war, and the blood is going to be on their hands, unless they can get this genie back in the bottle. I wonder how the Latino population is going to feel about being made subservient to the black race, and to participate in paying blacks reparations?

It would be the ultimate campaign commercial to produce ads for latin tv networks, which ask Latinos how they feel about their tax dollars being used to pay reparations for blacks.

The majority of LEOs are “just doing a job” and have no obligation to risk anything to protect you.

We saw this in the LA riots and several school shootings where cops stood by or ran away hiding

In Massachusetts it is illegal to be politically honest or sane, patriotic, and a white conservative. /Sarc - NOT!

Hey, c’mon. Leave the Springfield cops alone. It gives them something to do until they are disbanded.

Gee, wonder what the clearance rates are for violent crimes in Springfield?

Must be really high if the PD has the manpower to spare for this....

Where did you live in New England? Your comments reflect about three communities.

The rest is pretty normal.

I’d accidentally have a 5 gallon bucket of “Elephant Snot” spilled on it.

It is pathetic that the police have been politicized. In the LIB cesspool of massachusetts aren’t there real crimes to investigate and so forth? I bet there are many crimes committed by their LIB loser politicians and their families every day.

“Your comments reflect about three communities.”

IF my comments reflect a mere THREE communities there is zero evidence in the voting records of those communities to back up such a ludicrous claim.
NE states are overwhelmingly LEFTIST. There isn’t any doubt about this. The politicians they elect speak to this fact.
To answer your question. I was born in Milford, MA. Raised in Foxborough, MA. My mom and dad used to tell their children we are the only family is the state that is Republicans, and to keep it a secret. A joke of course.
I left that worthless Dem hellhole when I went off to college. I spent 26 years on active duty but, I still have relatives in Mass, RI. Conn, etc.. my youngest son went to college in Vermont. He received a full scholarship to Norwich University. A somewhat bubble of sanity surrounded by LEFTISTS. I spoke to him about any sense of politics on campus and he told me it’s definitely there but, it’s subdued. Not in your face but, definitely there.

Yeah, I went to Norwich. A long time ago. The only thing in Northfield is...well nothing.

You mention the south shore and corrupt RI.

There are plenty of republicans and libertarians all over NE.

I agree. There are but, not enough to make a difference. I realized this decades ago and chose to never ever go back. When I retired from active duty I chose to live in a state where I could make a difference politically. I chose Florida because it’s swing-state status and electoral votes in the Electoral College means something politically. In this state, our Conservative votes make a difference.

“The majority of LEOs are “just doing a job” and have no obligation to risk anything to protect you.”

So much for LEO’s being ‘public servants’ and all of that other claptrap. When a herd dog fails to make an effort to protect the herd from wolves that dog is not long for this world. Any government worth a damn would explicitly tell police that it is their duty to protect citizens and that if they fail to do so they will be fired and lose all pension benefits.
