On Veteran's Day, Tomi Lahren took to Twitter to criticize a mural of Greta Thunberg in San Fransisco, writing, 'Would probably be too much to have a tribute mural to an AMERICAN veteran or law enforcement officer who truly sacrificed for the country and community, huh?'
A four-story mural of 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg was completed in downtown San Francisco on Monday, but the artist and organizer's choice of subject has rubbed at least one person the wrong way.
— Tomi Lahren November 11, 2019 Immediately, social media users called Lahren out on her opinion, with some suggesting that she paint or fund a mural of her own choosing. — Logically Preston November 11, 2019 1) There are murals of such kind as you described all over the US.3) Feel free to sponsor a mural for one of out vets/LEOs?— Tony November 11, 2019 There’s literally monuments around the country for veterans and law enforcement. Have you never visited Washington, DC? Excellent point. Sad days sometimes, but bright moments from folks like you. Thanks for truth and light. Our only hope.
— RealNikky November 11, 2019 While many seemed concerned over the environmental repercussions of using spray paint to create the 60-foot-tall by 30-foot wide mural, One Atmosphere, the environmental nonprofit who is sponsoring the art, and artist, Andres Iglesias, who goes by the name Nino Cobre, clarified that the materials used were environmentally friendly.
