Vandalizing hundred plus year old monuments in a hissy isn't required to reject the whitewash. This kind of crap gives conservatives fuel to bring moderates over to their side. There are constructive ways to reject the whitewash that doesn't feed conservatives' overblown narratives about us.

The cops should enforce the law and arrest some people. We expect no less when conservative assholes vandalize the environment in protest.
