Evidently, the politically correct police promptly came and out and denounced such a sacrilege. According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/artanddesign\/2016\/aug\/02\/hillary-clinton-mural-covered-with-niqab-after-public-decency-complaints\">the Guardian<\/a>, the <strong>local council said the mural \u201ccontravened its gender equity policy.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWe believe that this mural is offensive because of the depiction of a near-naked woman, not on the basis of disrespect to Hillary Clinton, and it is not in keeping with our stance on gender equity<\/strong>,\u201d the council chief executive, Stephen Wall, said. \u201c<strong>We contacted Victoria police to provide their opinion on the matter, and they deemed the mural to be offensive<\/strong> and in contravention of the Graffiti Prevention Act 2007, which [the] council is responsible for enforcing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The local artist, known as Lushlux, was threatened with prosecution and fines if he did not remove the mural. He complied, but not quite as expected by the local bureaucrats.<\/p>\n<p>In an ironic turn of events, Lushlux decided to depict Hillary wearing a burqa, and left a message for the ultra PC, hyper-sensitive government folks. <strong>\u201cIf this Muslim woman offends u, u r a bigot, racist, sexist Islamophobe.\u201d<\/strong> Be careful what you wish for&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/zerohedge.com\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/user5\/imageroot\/2016\/07\/21\/hillary%20mural.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/zerohedge.com\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/user5\/imageroot\/2016\/07\/21\/hillary%20mural_0.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We assume this new mural depiction would flatter Hillary, as Islam is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-government\/2015\/11\/19\/hillary-clinton-muslims-peaceful-tolerant-nothing-whatsoever-terrorism\/\">a religion of peace. <\/a>Or maybe not: On Wednesday, the wall had been painted completely black.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/news\/2016-08-03\/hillary-bikini-mural-gets-ironic-revision-after-public-decency-complaints\">http:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/news\/2016-08-03\/hillary-bikini-mural-gets-ironic-revision-after-public-decency-complaints<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-44976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=44976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44976\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=44976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=44976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=44976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
