A Black Lives Matter mural in Indianapolis was vandalized just one week after a group of artists painted it

to help spread the message of social justice and racial equality.

The mural, approved by the Indianapolis City-County Council in July, is painted with the names and pictures of Black Americans killed by police such as Michael Taylor, Dreasjon Reed and Breonna Taylor. Other themes, like the importance of voting and Black pride, were painted as well. But on Sunday morning, the community woke up to see that each letter had been vandalized with splatters of white and gray paint.

I'd have no problem being recorded bashing people over the head and beating them to a bloody pulp for vandalizing said murals

Great news, BLM = Burn Loot Murder and the sub-meaning Black Lives Matter are a TROJAN horse full of Marxists on a mission to Burn the country

Let it go

What about these lives? Do they matter?

It’s so sick that people is so ignorant and they can’t understand that we are all living in the same Nation !! There will always be someone that needs to destroy !! They don’t have GOD in their heart ! And they had to use white paint 😡 Evil will not win !

I bet this vandalism stop once one of those racist get caught, & get their ass whooped!!!!

I don't think anyone should be surprised

Good.

Racist people hate being called out.

Racists are everywhere

Mural is when a Democrat paints on public property , vandalized is when republican paints

Hmm expression of 1st Amendment, just like those liberals defacing statues. I love it.

👍🏼

They should probably stop permitting these. they just seem to be dividing America.... Surprisingly - They are Dividing the Black Community.

Paint gets paint. Freedom.

Vandals vandalizing the vandals; when will it stop; lmao

People are rioting and destroying innocent people’s businesses and this is what the left is worried about?

Oh well

💥MARXIST MOVEMENT😝

The Devil lives on Earth

Maybe they should have done this on tops of buildings where vandals can't get there so easily!

About time the other side get a dose of the same medicine!! Pretty soon they will start taking down statues of blacks

Oh well.

It was vandaliazed? It IS vandalism in itself!

There is no hope.

White snowflakes are so easily triggered…there there poor sad little white snowflakes, wanna hug & a candy? MAGA MAGAts sad BlackLivesMatter ✊

What fair is fair if people can destroy monuments others can destroy murals

RACIST GRAFFITI GET IT OFF OUR STREETS

Freedom of speech goes both ways I suppose?

oh well.....

😂😂😂

Great idea! Let’s all send them a message that tells them how we feel about the radical black killers in this country!!

Good. Burn loot mayhem

Done by and by who ?

It's cool that each vandalism will become part of the art as they repair it. Smart artist. Permanently displaying the acts of racism & hate in a active living record. Awesome.

Just say no to Marxism. Just say no to CNN. They give aid and comfort to the enemy.

That’s ok. I believe on Everybody’s Live Matter

Federal Court in Portland is being burned to the ground

So like, can anyone request to paint a mural from the City-County Council? If someone wants to paint another mural, with the names of all the police officers killed by black people, and the request is denied by the Council, is that discrimination? Can they sue? 🤔

Good

What a hateful country. Oh America, what have you become?

These are ACTIVE Roadway surfaces people - none of them are sacrosanct

You know, two could play this game. Those confederate symbols and statues should be vandalized as well.

The racists continue to prove why the preamble to the US constitution of justice and tranquility is a 244 year old lie and will remain a lie. It's not immigrants, blacks, Iran or Russia defiling the goals of the US. It's racists. Heather Heyer is dead because of racists.

Great. We're all getting sick of this crap

How do you vandalize vandalism?

Who cares? It was vandalized first by the people who painted blm mural on the spot

Now it is s TRUE work of art.

Hold on I'm taking my morning BLM movement right now. 😨

How can vandalizing vandalism be wrong!?!?!?!

I love how the BLM stuff lasted only 5 weeks before everyone just forgot about it. Like yeah, black lives matter. But it’s also not something to riot about, which is probably why everyone started ignoring it and moving onto more important matters.
