Surprised?

No, not really:

  • Multiple elected officials are condemning the vandalism of a mural honoring three fallen Chicago police officers, as a reward is offered for information leading to an arrest.

    The artwork, located along South Pulaski Road near West 68th Street in the West Lawn neighborhood, pays tribute to officers Luis Huesca, Andres Vasquez Lasso and Enrique Martinez. Cook County Crime Stoppers is offering a cash reward of up to $1,000 for information in the case.

    "The act of vandalism damaged a memorial created to pay tribute to the sacrifice and service of a fallen member of law enforcement and has deeply impacted the officers, family members and community members who view the mural as a symbol of remembrance and respect," Crime Stoppers said in a poster about the vandalism.

    The incident is under investigation by detectives.

Hopefully, it gets solved.

I don't think she has a chance and I HATE voting democRAT but Mendoza is the better of the other 2. She seems like a solid choice. Stanton from Rogers Park is also supposed to be running too, haven't seen anything official yet. Why can't this fucking city get off of it's "democRAT only" mindset?! Clearly it isn't working, years of screwed up direction shows that. "We need more programs, reparations, we're the victims...bullshit! Start taking control of your own lives. BTW, Martin Luther King was a uniter...and a Republican. Nobody wants to hear facts.

Offering $1000 dollars for an arrest and for a burning cross it’s $10000 dollars. What’s the problem here?

Here are a few more facts: MLK, Jr. plagiarized his doctoral dissertation, had several extramarital affairs, and hired prostitutes. And that wasn't even his real name: his true name was Michael King, jr.

I would concur, the perpetrator is nothing but a coward, and
we all know they exist. Glad the mural is being repaired.
