The monument has a statue on either side. At around 9 p.m., protesters used a strap to pull down one statue before quickly removing the second one. Both statues were dragged in the street and eventually tied to light fixtures and pulled up to mimic hangings.

Why do the police not stop vandalism. In broad daylight. What is the damn hold up?
ReplyDeleteMind boggling.
