A bust of Abraham Lincoln was vandalized in Chicago, but it's unclear who did it and when it happened.
What an absolute disgraceful act of vandalism. This bust of Abraham Lincoln, erected by Phil Bloomquist on August 31, 1926, was damaged & burned.
Near 69th & Wolcott, if anyone has any information regarding this act, please contact the police or my office immediately.

some reality for Rob ... when you post lies all the time you are no better that trumpy..
While the photograph of the damaged Lincoln statue is real, those commenting on who was responsible or why the damage occurred are merely speculating. As of press time, that information is not available. We've reached out to the Chicago Police Department, Commander Kenneth Johnson of the Chicago Police's 7th District, and the 17th Ward's office (Raymond Lopez is not the alderman of the 17th Ward) for more information.
... it was unclear when or who did it, anybody that say's different is speculating..
It's also unclear when the damage actually occurred. Lopez told the
Chicago Sun Times that the statue was vandalized in the days following the rally in Charlottesville, but this has not been confirmed. An Englewood resident told the that the statue may have burned over 4th of July when the statue was used as a platform to set off fireworks:
... when ?? unclear, over the 4th of July when the statue was used as a platform to set off fireworks: ,,,
,, A West Englewood resident interviewed Thursday speculated that some burn damage to the Lincoln bust may have been caused by fireworks set off on July 4th.
... People were out partying on the 4th of July and lighting fireworks off of it, said Christopher Jackson, 22, who lives two blocks from the statue and saw the revelers also light newspapers on fire on top of the statue.
Jackson also said that whoever vandalized the statue may not have known that it was a bust of Abraham Lincoln. Photographs dating back to
2006 show that the statue has been in a state of disrepair for more than a decade. Local news web site DNA Info

....The 3-foot high concrete statue of Illinois favorite son has been a fixture at 69th Street and Wolcott Avenue for nearly 90 years. However, in the last several years it has become dilapidated, and residents want it restored to its previous glory.
There used to be a time when it was cleaned up. Now no one takes care of it, said Pearlin Fields, 74, who lives in the 6900 block of South Wolcott Avenue. If the statue is going to be there, the least someone could do is wash it every now and then.
.... Rob, you tell stupid lies , do the research before you post. We all know you're a great American and can't sleep at night worrying about this statue, only you and trumpy 'can make America white again'..... & start reading the posts because you are not well informed.. SAD !!!!!
