A city councilmember is also speaking out against political vandalism found in her district. <\/p>\n<p>Graffiti could be seen near the 281 Access Road and Evans Road, where the phrases &#8220;America Unite&#8221; and &#8220;No More Trump&#8221; were spray-painted, visible to drivers heading south toward downtown. On Saturday, thousands gathered at Travis Park as part of a nationwide protest against the Trump administration&#8217;s policies. <\/p>\n<p>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/news4sanantonio.com\/news\/local\/san-antonio-church-and-local-spots-vandalized-with-no-kings-graffiti-amid-protests\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/news4sanantonio.com\/news\/local\/san-antonio-church-and-local-spots-vandalized-with-no-kings-graffiti-amid-protests\" class=\"themeColorForLinks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">North Side church and local spots vandalized with &#8216;No Kings&#8217; graffiti amid protests<\/a><\/p>\n<p>District 9 Councilwoman Misty Spears reported seeing multiple graffiti tags throughout her district on the Northeast Side around 3 p.m. on the day of the protest. She says she believes in freedom of speech but this has crossed the line. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We care about all graffiti and tagging, but there\u2019s a difference when there\u2019s messaging and hate speech tied to it, and so it\u2019s important we get that removed as soon as possible,&#8221; Councilwoman Spears said. <\/p>\n<p>Councilwoman Spears immediately contacted law enforcement and public works to address the vandalism. We are working with the San Antonio Police Department to get an update on the investigation. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear if a suspect has been identified or if anyone is in custody. We&#8217;ll be sure to keep you updated as we learn more. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN ANTONIO \u2014 An investigation is underway after a North Side church was vandalized following Saturday&#8217;s No Kings&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11508,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[9935,9398,100,1748,4988,82,84,83,2558,4549],"class_list":{"0":"post-11507","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-antonio","8":"tag-councilwoman","9":"tag-graffiti","10":"tag-investigation","11":"tag-no-kings","12":"tag-protests","13":"tag-san-antonio","14":"tag-san-antonio-headlines","15":"tag-san-antonio-news","16":"tag-trump","17":"tag-vandalism"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11507"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11507\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11508"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
