The George Floyd memorial statue in New York City's Union Square was vandalized for the second time, but this time by a skateboarding MAGA-Trump-loving-racist-treasonous-capitalist whose preferred pronouns are "Bite Me."

How dare anyone disgrace the statue of a man who has not only set the record for human consumption of fentanyl and methamphetamine, but was also carrying the COVID-19 virus while trying to pass counterfeit money at a local grocery? How dare anyone do that?
It seems that defacing George Floyd statues has become something of a national pastime. One statue of Floyd was vandalized in New Jersey on Juneteenth, one the same day the first vandalization of the Union Square statue occurred.
This time, the statue of Floyd was doused in silver paint. Police obtained a video showing a male who might be a female, depending on how he identifies, skateboarding and having a backpack. He fiddles with something inside the backpack at around 10 a.m., according to a police cisgender spokesman.
Then the miscreant takes off on his skateboard as he throws the paint on Floyd's bust. Unfortunately, police say they are not planning on releasing the video due to its woke sacreligious content.
The nearby statues of Lewis and Breonna Taylor, the 26-year-old black woman who was shot and killed by Louisville, Ky. police in last year, were not vandalized.
In June, the Floyd statue was smeared with black paint and tagged with the phrase "Patriot Front."
This is something I do not recommend as it is a cowardly act. But I do recommend that people stop looking at Floyd as some kind of hero--he wasn't.
