The state of Florida painted over the Pulse Memorial site crosswalk in Orlando... and then people colored it back in.
Orlando Sentinel - Gift LinkThe state of Florida came in overnight and painted over the Pulse Memorial site crosswalk in Orlando. This crosswalk abided by the state’s laws and was originally installed by them. To be clear, the state surreptitiously painted over this memorial at night against the city’s wishes. Cowards.

Someone chalked over it with the original LGBTQ+ colors for the time being.

A photo of the lovely people who chalked the original colors back into the Pulse Memorial crosswalk in Orlando, Florida.
