Missouri Cops Protect Protesters Painting Blue Line Over BLM Street Mural


This weekend in Missouri several patriots, under the protection of police, painted a blue, then gray line over a Black Lives Matter mural that was painted on the street in front of the Florissant police department.

BLM protesters had been attempting to paint a mural on the street for some time. And following multiple warnings, police arrested two people after protesters managed to start painting “Black Lives Matter” in the street for the third time.

A video posted to Twitter on Saturday showed a group of people painting over the stenciled words and questioned the use of a blue line of paint to do the job. “The thin blue line” has for decades been a metaphor for police work, and it’s frequently included in pro-police imagery.
They’ve had to paint over it twice and just finished yesterday but BLM was already forming protesters to repaint it.
According to Florissant Police Department Officer Steve Michael, the paint is not blue, but gray, probably they painted over again to make it grey as we can see from the pictures and the video.

“It was painted over because it is illegal to paint the roadway,”

Some suggested that the group painting over the mural was a local group of people, but officer Michael said that the new paint job was done by the city’s street department.

“If we allow all groups to paint a message anywhere then we would have all kinds of different groups doing it,” he said. “We simply cannot allow any group to paint anything on roadways.”
