Catholic Saint Statue Beheaded in California, Splashed with Red Paint | Truth Revolt

Catholic Saint Statue Beheaded in California, Splashed with Red Paint | Truth Revolt: It seems no statue is off limits in the great purging of American history.

At the Old Santa Barbara Mission in California, a statue of St. Junipero Serra was found decapitated this week and covered in dripping, red paint.

Crux reports:

Another statue of St. Junipero Serra has been defaced in California. The founder of the California missions has been criticized for his treatment of native populations in the 18th century. However, when Pope Francis made him a saint, he said Serra “sought to defend the dignity of the native community, to protect it from those who had mistreated and abused it.”
