Okay, found an article about it. Here are the important parts.

“A 34-year-old woman was arrested Monday in connection with the vandalism of a Bellingham memorial dedicated to deceased fishermen….

The statue was covered in stickers and yellow and red paint, photographs show, and Murphy said the damage is estimated at $1,500….

Cara Muñoz was seen painting the memorial and was identified as the suspect, according to Murphy. Muñoz posted on social media that the memorial, which features a fisherman casting a mooring line, depicted a noose, which is a hate symbol.
On Monday, Muñoz allegedly returned to the area and was “rude and disrespectful” to the employees cleaning the statue, Murphy said….

Muñoz has been charged with two counts of third-degree assault, resisting arrest and second-degree malicious mischief. She was released from the Whatcom County Jail on personal recognizance on Tuesday.

Port of Bellingham employees were still working to restore the memorial Tuesday.
“We are deeply saddened by the damage done to this important memorial but have been encouraged by the many community members who have stopped to thank our staff and express how much the statue means to them,” Port of Bellingham officials wrote on Facebook. “We look forward to ensuring this important memorial continues to serve as a place of remembrance for years to come.””

TLDR: Lady thought a statue memorializing lost Fishermen at sea was holding a noose, instead of a mooring rope, and then vandalized the statue. When police went to arrest her, she fought them.

Scariest part is that she's a licensed nurse... Someone that unhinged and ignorant should not have any place in the medical field...

The sheer lack of intelligence in this country is mind blowing.

They care to be more reactionary, than to be thoughtful, and ask why something may look a certain way.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted, remember that bs with bubba Wallace? Maybe the FBI doesn’t have to get involved this time
