The pair recorded themselves painting over the Black Lives Matter mural with black paint just hours after it was finished on the Fourth of July.
A man and a woman were charged with a hate crime on Tuesday after they allegedly painted over a Black Lives Matter mural in California on the Fourth of July, prosecutors said.
"We're sick of this narrative. That's what's wrong," says a man wearing a red"Make America Great Again" hat and a shirt that read,"Four more years.""Keep this shit in New York," the woman yells out."This is not happening in my town." Officials said the large"Black Lives Matter" mural was approved after a local resident applied for a permit for the temporary mural in front of the Wakefield Taylor Courthouse.
"No one wants Black Lives Matter here," Nelson is heard saying in the video."Fucking 'Keep America Great Again.' That's right. Why don't you guys learn about history?"
