'MURDERERS' spray-painted outside Louisiana Democratic Party office

BATON ROUGE, La. — The Louisiana Democratic Party’s office in Baton Rouge was vandalized Thursday night after someone spray-painted the word “MURDERERS” in red outside the building,

Lanus condemned the act, calling it an example of “fear-mongering” amid an increasingly heated political climate.

“This is a direct side effect of the hate that has been pushed upon our society!” Lanus said in a post on social media. “This is fear-mongering at its best and the very reason we cannot stop fighting for justice across our state and our country.”

Lanus also said that whoever painted the word “got the wrong party and the wrong building.”
