California: Redwood City Removes BLM Mural After Request for ‘MAGA 2020’

Newsmax: Redwood City, California, near San Francisco, has removed a Black Lives Matter mural from one of its streets after a resident asked to paint a “MAGA 2020” mural on the same street, KPIX reports.

Dan Pease of Redwood City obtained permission from the city to paint “Black Lives Matter” on Broadway as part of the city’s July 4th celebration, and the city even supplied him with yellow poster board paint.

“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 told the station.

But the city washed the mural away in the middle of the night Thursday after it was contacted by local attorney Maria Rutenburg. Rutenburg said if the street was now considered a public forum, she wanted to pain her own sign reading “MAGA 2020,” short form of President Donald Trump’s campaign slogan “Make America Great Again.” more

  1. “Pease said he understands the city’s position, but did not consider his mural to be a political statement.“

    Making it all but impossible for him to deny that he is either delusional or a lying sack of shit from this point forward

  2. Redwood city use to have an amusement park called Africa USA. A fitting name for Redwood City back then. I doubt if things have changed much. Five miles to the west is some of the most expensive real estate in California. In between there is the garage HP was started in.

  3. BLM isn’t a simple political statement. It’s a call to terrorist marxist political statement.

    I used to work for a company based out of Redwood City and had to stay in hotels out there often. Don’t miss it a bit. Well, I miss the pay, but in hindsight not worth it.

  4. A BLM banner was torn down from a freeway overpass just south of the capital building in Sacramento.
    The dominatelefty prog neighborhood replaced it.
    Torn down again.
    Shame
