Oh, So Here's the 'White Supremacist' Accused of Vandalizing a Gay Pride Crosswalk With Swastikas
A black male suspect has been identified as the repeat vandalism suspect accused of defacing the Rainbow Crosswalk in Atlanta, Georgia, last month with swastikas after leftists online blamed white supremacy for the spray paint across the LGBTQ street art, a cultural landmark known as the city's emblem of gay pride.
30-year-old Jonah Jade Sampson is charged with criminal trespass, felony interference with government property, and three counts of second-degree criminal damage to property for allegedly vandalizing the rainbow stripes painted at the intersection of 10th St and Piedmont Ave in mid-town Atlanta on two separate occasions.
Surveillance video captured the suspect twice spray-painting a swastika over the Rainbow Crosswalk on Aug. 17 and another swastika along with an anti-gay slur later on Aug. 19. That same week, authorities discovered another swastika painted on a monument outside the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta building. APD spokeswoman TaSheena Brown told local media outlets that Sampson is a suspect as well in the Federal Reserve vandalism.
Warrants were issued and Sampson was arrested on Aug. 19 following an hours-long stand-off with local law enforcement, including a SWAT team that was dispatched to the scene, at the suspect's apartment building. Sampson was taken into police custody after he exited the residence, according to an APD press release.
Jail records show Sampson was booked at Fulton County Jail on $77,500 bond. One count of criminal trespass was dismissed against Sampson because the warrant did not identify the value of the damaged property as required by Georgia Code § 16-7-21, a dismissal order filed on Aug. 24 in Fulton County Superior Court says.
Sampson's next court date is yet to be determined but he was ordered during his first courtroom appearance on Aug. 20 to "stay away" from the LGBTQ-friendly Saint Mark United Methodist Church, which was also a nearby target of recent vandalism, as a condition of release. The church was informed by police that the same suspected vandal threw bricks at its windows, WSB-TV reported. (Plexiglass covering the 100-year-old stained glass window protected it from any damage.) The attack took place right after the parish reinstalled its Pride flag.

My comment: Yet another example of Blacks creating their own racism. I guess the White supremist are too few and far between.
