BELLEFONTE — The vandalism that took place on the second weekend of 2021 at Jake’s Cards and Games in Bellefonte continues to send shock waves through the community.
The mural was vandalized on Jan. 8 with messages of hate from the same white supremacist group that left stickers throughout downtown State College recently.
The vandalism occurred in the wake of the Capitol riot that occurred in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6. Someone used stencils and spray paint to deface Bellefonte’s Pride wall mural with the website of the white supremacist group Patriot Front in numerous places as well as an image of the United States with one of the group’s slogans, “Not stolen, conquered.”
