@michaelvalentenews: The #Pulse crosswalk is once again covered in chalk, just hours after FDOT—for the third time since last Wednesday—painted over it to return it to black and white. FDOT argued this is about safety and in no way is meant to disrespect the memories of the 49 people killed inside Pulse. Protesters—who’ve been here every day—vehemently disagree. #Orlando #Florida #News #Reporting
there's nothing political about a memorial for people who were murdered! it became political when it was removed

the fact that they KEEP painting it black is so asinine. is going over 2,3,4 times really cost less than putting a fresh coat of colored paint? stay strong Orlando.

34 minutes, it took them 34 minutes to come paint it for the 3rd time. This is what’s important to them. Not the housing crisis, not the economy, no painting a rainbow away that was a memorial. Shame.

Interesting how Florida is saying painted crosswalks are a hazard yet only the rainbow ones are being removed.

it was only political when they labeled it as political. that's a memorial, a statement of solidarity for people who literally were killed in an act of extreme violence. but them covering it up to get rid of the "woke" has now made the victims who were supposed to be honored there a political spectacle. what a waste of tax payer dollars to cover up something beautiful.

Shame on desantis. The original memorial was approved and had permit to create rainbow crossing. The cover up did not have any hearing or community input. No due process. Shame on FDOT and shame on desantis
