I gotta go see but I was following it yesterday almost in real time.

I'm maybe 2 hours from there.

I swear I cannot explain the actions of these people any more than black folk can, it boggles my mind. But then, I have never felt superior to anyone.

Not sure why they are not under arrest for vandalizing public property.

If they had been black they would have been dead at the scene.

Pissed here.

Her name is Nicole and they have the license plate for their truck. I suspect they have been identified by now.

Police describe the suspects' car as a Nissan pickup truck with the word "NICOLE" on the right side in silver lettering.

The truck's license plate is "52701B1."

"Isn't that drawing even more attention to something she apparently is trying to erase? Does she think black paint on asphalt is like White Out Correction Fluid?".

she should dig up some of the asphalt and taken to a paint store and asked them to match the color.
After the paint store employees picked themselves up off the floor from laughing, they could call the
cops and inform them of a person digging up city streets, her tag number and presently she's headed
over to the asphalt/paving company we recommended to her. Oh, and she's armed and dangerous
with a 4 feet paint roller, so social distance and wear your mask because she's foaming at the mouth
because we couldn't match her color.

Did she plan to paint over everything with that little bucket? What an idiot...she covered half of the B and L and was out of paint.
It's also funny how that dude is letting her do all the work...and he let's her get into trouble all by herself as well.

How hard they were going after a Trump. Not a bit of diplomacy. They sounded almost like DUers.
