Clearly, Democrats believe that First Amendment freedoms are for their totalitarian ideology. Thugs and goons.

- He was concerned that a human rights message had been washed away because of a person’s political stance
By Frances Mulraney For Dailymail.com, 22 July 2020:
A California city removed a Black Lives Matter mural during the middle of the night last week after receiving a request to paint a Trump 2020 statement on the same street.
Story continues below advertisementRedwood City Council said that although they had given the BLM mural permission earlier this month, they now believed it was a traffic hazard and had to be removed.
Yet the sudden decision was made after resident Maria Rutenburg said she wished to paint a MAGA 2020 message on the street if it was now a public forum.
She argued that a BLM mural on the street when she was not able to paint her own political message was an example of city officials promoting private political expression and a limited private agenda.
‘Governments cannot and should not get to pick and choose who should be allowed to speak,’ the attorney told KRON4.
‘Now that the cities open up asphalts as public forums, everyone with any political message is free to write their own. I, for one, would like to paint MAGA 2020.
‘At a time like this, it’s especially important that we allow free and open political discussion for all sides, not just BLM,’ she added.
Earlier this month, Redwood resident Dan Pease had asked for the 17-foot long Black Lives Matter mural to be painted along Broadway in a July 4 celebration, and the city had even donated the poster paint to make it happen.
The original plan had been to allow the mural to fade away but city officials took action to have it washed off last Thursday night, angering some residents who have now stated a petition opposing its removal.
‘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, who said he was inspired to ask for the mural because of his four-year-old mixed-race son, told CBS San Francisco.

Worst Mayors in America Demand Congress Stop Trump From Ruining Their Riots

This is so insane! Not wanting help to stop the murder and violence spree going on and then defunding police!
I got rid of my job after working for the same business enterprise for many years, I expected trustworthy gain, I was not researching for the “get rich quick” home packages you can find all through the internet. Those are likely to be pyramid systems or things that you will need to try to sell to your friends or members of the family. Only two or three months back I landed upon a great online work prospect. Through the online I benefit about 4,000-5,000 bucks every 30 days It is actually a sufficient amount to definitely replace my old workplace income, particularly seeing that I just simply work almost 20 hr each and every week at home. I absolutely wanted a reputable program to make money for me and also my family. The most attractive aspect of earning a living over the internet is that I am generally home with the the kids, I save lots of money. Frankly, it is easier than you would feel. I acquired the instructions kit and within a month I started gaining over $4,000 each and every month. The guidelines are extremely simple, you do not have to be a computer expert, but you must be aware how to use the internet. If you are able to fill up forms and surf web-sites, you are able to do it successfully, You don’t even have to sell anything and no one have to purchase something. It is really as simple as using Fb or twitter.Here’s the easiest way to start ==> http://bburl.net/b3
Hey….isn’t that a picture of Geller Reports commentator Mohammed Goldberg ?????
I thought it was Mohammed Schikelgruber?
Not to BLM protesters!
No lives matter to them.
That’s not entirely true… The Black Lying Marxists only care about the black lives they can exploit. If they can’t exploit a black life then they don’t care about it. That means 99.99% of black lives don’t matter but only 0.01% or less of black lives matter to them.
Human rights issue???? Does the black little morons really know who kills more blacks everyday????
@patd; IF — I mean WHEN you look at the skin color of the BLACK LIvES MATTER people, you will notice that MOST of them have WHITE SKIN. ‘antifa’ and ‘blm’ operatives are nothing more than ADMITTED marxists who work with the DemocRAT National Communist party who is trying to “FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM” America into ameriKKKa!!!!!!!!
IF the Black LIvES Matter people REALLY CARED — THEY would be in these DemocRAT controlled cities STOPPING THE SLAUGHTER OF AMERICANS —- IRREGARDLESS OF THE SKIN COLOR!!!!!!!!!
Good for the Redwood City patriots but this will only work once. The Left has already come up with some new tactics. While we’re saying, “Yayyy! We stopped them. Peace and quiet at last”, they’re brainstorming up more cultural destruction and getting the word out to their goons. They never give up. If they shut up, it’s not for long.
*** You and yours have a wonderful week, reyol!
“The city council instead quickly took away the BLM mural but said it was because it was a traffic hazard” Sure it was. Having no remnant of a BLM mural, is far better than sharing the street with a pro-Trump slogan. THAT……is how much they hate Trump!
I love it! Someone needs to do that in NYC. It wouldn’t surprise me though, if Deblazio would reject it as “hate speech”.
Quote:”He was concerned that a human rights message had been washed away because of a person’s political stance”
But the message “All Lives Matter” is NOT a human rights message according to his woke ideology? Does the idiot even realize his own innate hypocrisy or care?
A MAGA mural wouldn’t last a week in most any city with more than 50,000 inhabitants in Californication. It would be vandalized.
Wiggers are the lowest weakest gayest men on earth
What is good for thee should be good for me. Now someone in NYC should ask DeBlasio for their time on the road.
EVERY city should DEMAND… WHITE LIVES MATTER be painted on the streets… ESPECIALLY in front of NYC… city hall… and in front of COMMIE PIG- DeBlaio’s house
