More likely some nitwit left a candle unattended and it burned down the memorial.

Just out of interest as I spotted an amazing claim in a post......
I've never heard of a case where a white victims murder was protested by blacks.

Takes a bit more digging than the other way around, but it's there:

You're not old enough. :O:

It appears it was a case where two white civil liberty activists were killed by a KKK conspiracy, along with one black activist.

What ?? I'm not posting the links, Tribes brought it up, he should do it :O:

I wonder how people don't know about it?.....

The entire conspiracy thing is a conspiracy, trying to get our attention elsewhere, thinking about climate change and chemtrails so we don't notice the drugs in our water bottles to make us all worship xanadu :o

Police are saying that it was the candles, but I'd say it was a 50/50 chance, all things considered, no official cause has been given. Other memorials have had things done to them, on the night the shooting happened a police dog was allowed to urinate on one, and a police cruiser drove over another.

Giving the choice between citizens doing something stupid and citizens doing something malicious, I know where the smart money goes. :D

With all of those nice combustible materials...
Just add jar candles and a bit of wind and possibly some mischievous children.:hmmm:
