The BLM movement has caused many liberal leaders to show off their lacking leadership skills. Many not only buckled to BLM, they also went a step further and pandered to the protesters allowing street murals. NY Mayor DeBlasio tried to use the mural to stick it Trump by having it painted in front of Trump Tower. California also has a BLM street mural put up with poster paint. They claimed that it was a temporary mural as the paint was supposed to slowly wash away. But after a Trump Supporter asked to put up a MAGA 2020 Mural, suddenly the city was not interested in street murals and immediately washed away the BLM sign.
“Redwood City resident Dan Pease received permission from city officials to paint “Black Lives Matter” on Broadway Street as part of a Fourth of July public art celebration, according to KPIX 5. City officials even supplied him with the yellow poster paint to make the mural.
“Because we were using the poster board paint that would eventually deteriorate over time, my understanding from them was that the mural would last as long as the paint lasted,” Pease explained, the outlet said.
Then, local real estate attorney Maria Rutenberg, who reasoned that the street was now a public forum, asked the city if she could paint her own “MAGA 2020” sign on the same street.
“I saw ‘Black Lives Matter’ sign appearing on Broadway Street on the asphalt and I figured that’s gonna be a new public space, open for discussion, and I wanted to get my message out, too,” Rutenburg said.
The city did not respond but promptly removed the Black Lives Matter mural, the news outlet said. They said the sign was a traffic hazard and might cause accidents.”
It looks like that is the answer to getting the BLM murals off of the streets. If Trump supporters ask for MAGA Murals, the BLM murals suddenly become traffic hazards… interesting how that works.
