And for those looking at this as a political statement, the reality is that there are extremists on BOTH sides that fit this description ... they're just intolerant on different issues. Blaming the 'other side' is a huge part of the problem in this country IMHO.
Regardless of the motive, cutting down that statue and burning it is despicable.

Agreed. Generalizing and finger pointing have polarized the country. Whereas a small percentage, the outliers, seem to garner the most attention and people are "lumped" Into groups
The idiots tried to melt it in a trash can. Regardless of race creed or religion. They are idiots! Highly doubt it was race motivated. Although either side can likely find a ulterior motive once the person are caught. I won't pontificate on where the dividing line will be based on perps ethnic demographic
