A man and a woman were arrested this week on suspicion of vandalizing a University of North Carolina memorial that is dedicated to slaves and other African-American workers who helped build the university

Ryan Francis Barnett, 31, and Nancy Rushton McCorkle, 50, were arrested Monday by UNC police, accused of vandalizing the Unsung Founders Memorial on the early morning of March 31 on the Chapel Hill campus, the school said.The memorial was defaced with"racist and other deplorable language," interim Chancellor Kevin M. Guskiewicz said in a message posted on the university's website. The memorial has since been cleaned, he said.

Protesters knock down Confederate statue at UNC 00:52The statue was not returned to its original spot, and in January, the university removed the rest of the Confederate monument, taking its base and commemorative plaques to an undisclosed location. The university chancellor at the time said the monument's presence was too controversial and caused too much disruption.

Example of the MAGA followers

如果不能看其他人,可以从这个世界上消失

Better for them to be treated from the racist feeling that pushed the to act like this.

bruh

يحفظكم الله ياصديقي

Put them to Work Scrubbing Off Graffiti All around Chapel Hill With a Toothbrush and a Bucket of suds

So I’m curious...have these ppl ALWAYS been filled w/criminal hatred towards other fellow Americans or is it only since Trump that they’ve begun to HATE FELLOW AMERICANS? Just curious. It’s so unpatriotic it’s hard to wrap my mind around.

And of course, Trump has enabled and emblazoned them, its all his fault, bla bla bla...

Stupids

Maybe they will drop charges like Durham NC did, oh wait wrong color 😱

Was anyone arrested for ripping down memorials to Confederate Generals?

Intelligent.

They made them take off their maga hats for the picture

Incest babies

Sick fellas

Dipshits.

The smirk on their faces says it all. Sickening

Send them to Australia chained up in the hull of a ship that makes 9 months to get there and sent to the quarry to bust rocks for 10 long years it will put some spirit in there backbone give them the true experience of what it was about then they might think twice.

I’d bet they’re “openly” racist

Sounds about white

Bonnie and Clyde? No. More like Meth and Crank.

Well if they were in Chicago, they might get exonerated!

They seem like cool people

Hope they rot in jail

20 lashes should be a lesson !!

Hope they enjoy their visit to the local lockup...

Let me guess 🤔 this is the presidents fault?

No scholars in this pic

Live so that those who know you but do n’t know “god almighty” get acquainted with “unique creator” through your acquaintance.

Looks about right.. lol

They're mad cuz they don't have top lips

And they don’t even look like they regret it at all

Deplorables gonna deplor 🤷🏻‍♂️

Asshats.

Losers

Morons! Just as bad as the Morons that want The Confederacy erased. It’s history people. Whether you think it’s good or bad, it’s part of history and monuments/statues/etc. should be used as teaching tools.

Again and again, from the corner and sideways, you readers say what power except the “genuine” intellect and “true” religion then “true” faith to”god almighty”, can prevent all such crimes around the world?

Evil people. And sad. Instead of using their time for doing something hateful why won’t they do something kind for someone? Kindness actually heals hate. It’s their loss

Did they make them take the maga hats off for the mugshot?

I’m sure there is a reason they are suspected but why exactly? I’m not sure this should just reported with zero explanation. I’m ready for a public hanging and then I realized ummm what did they do again? Hmm the article didn’t say. Ok let’s practice our knots for awhile I guess

Idiots

Lovely🤔🧐😢

So it is ok to vandalize other peoples memorials ?

We have a common ugly, proud, tough, rough, enduring history. It's ours... Americans... I would not give it up and they can't take it.

yeah the look like the 'superior' race 🤣🤣🤣

More of dumpy trumpys very fine people

UNBELIEVABLE...memorial and churches😡 What next... cemeteries? We cannot lose this war🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽on humanity, decency and democracy

MAGA

Where are the MAGA hats?

We should tear that memorial down and throw it away because I don’t like it.

When one is so blatantly NOT superior, they try desperately to make others believe they are inferior.

It's normal...Has anyone asked him/herself why the blacks are racially abused?

Who helped to build university.

Losers!!!

Everyone recognizes their connection to each other one day. Most, on their death bed. Embrace others for they are you.

That woman probably brainwashed the younger man

never happened

🚮🚮

Throw away the key!

Master race right here, people.

If they are guilty throw them in jail

Not all trump supporters are racist, but all racists are trump supporters

That’s is America today “The Land of the opportunity “ !

They look educated...

Freakin losers

Funny how you worded it as slaves ‘helping’ - isn’t it called slaver labour? 🤔 that’s why there will always be people like them

TRASH HUMANS

I would bet the mortgage on who they voted for President.

Looooooooooosers!

Bet I know who they voted for

CNN reporting....home of award winning Russia coverage, riveting Smollett updates, MAGA kid defamation....(and $275M lawsuit) BTW, how's that Malaysian Airline search going? You didn't say if the police found a noose? bleach? Sandwich? MAGA shouts?

Two lowlifes
