Both Democrats and Republicans are hypocritical about what they want to be allowed in public. One has issues with confederate items, one has problems with this painting. Both complain they're offensive. That being said, if a painting was up that put black people in a stereotypical role, it's be called racist. And the Dems argument of free speech wouldn't be used, they'd be on the other side. The argument one needs a safe space and be used on both sides. As usual though, most don't see that Dems and Repubs are the same in a lot of ways.
The issue I have with the painting is that it paints an incorrect picture, perpetuates the lie what happened in Ferguson, which is what this painting is about. The false narrative that the media pushed and how it was portrayed. It's pretty good artwork though. I don't know the legality of it to be honest, being allowed on state property or not. But driving a wedge further between the community and police is not what we need. The relationship is worse than it has been in a very long time.
