New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio was hysterical;
Last night a far-right extremist group vandalized a statue of George Floyd in Brooklyn. A racist, loathsome, despicable act of hate.
The City Cleanup Corps is repairing the statue right now and a hate crime investigation is underway. We will bring these cowards to justice. pic.twitter.com/mTwzwIyG4z Mayor Bill de Blasio (@NYCMayor) June 24, 2021

The contrast with the reactions to the orgy of vandalism of Confederate statues some of which are sculptural masterpieces is breathtaking. Thus Virginia Governor Ralph Northam did nothing when Black Lives Matter rioters vandalized Antonin Mercié’s magnificent rendition of Robert E. Lee in Richmond. The war on Confederate images is moving along strongly and it s part of a war on America.
