MLK, Christopher Columbus statues vandalized in Houston parks

Vandals splattered paint onto a bronze bust of Martin Luther King Jr. and a 7-foot-tall statue of Christopher Columbus in Houston as nationwide turmoil over historical statues spilled beyond the protests over Confederate monuments.

The MLK statue in the historically black community of Sunnyside was found smeared with white paint early Thursday morning.

The towering statue of Christopher Columbus in the Montrose area was doused with red paint sometime Thursday night, Houston police officials said Friday.

The vandalism of the MLK statue is probably payback. Columbus has been a target for a long time.

I expect to see more vandalism against targets associated with leftism.

MLK is also a church pastor and Antifa and leftists hate Christians.
