TMA Mural

Yesterday's Star has a story about David Tineo's attempts to save a mural he painted years ago on the side of the Tucson Museum of Art. The website also has a second feature with more pictures and a video.


Suprisingly, the comments section is free of the usual racist rants that accompanies any article touching on local culture. Although, there is one guy calling himself Peter V. who says that Tineo is no Diego Rivera. Oh yeah? Well maybe Rivera is no Tineo. And maybe Peter V. is no Clement Greenberg.

(Always fun to engage in a little name calling in the morning, ain't it? Especially when this pedant used three friggin' posts to give us a rundown of Mexica history. Thanks dude.)

There is also one guy who is claiming that Tineo is asking for taxpayer money to move the mural and this will lead to firing police officers. Um, if this jackass read the article, he'd see that Tineo is looking for grant money, the only city involvement is providing a location to put the thing. Typical redneck douchebaggery, a free service provided by the Star's comments section.



Hasta la proxima. Do zobaczenia.

So I am almost wondering if I should be offended over the Redneck part considering the vast majority of my ancestery is comprised of rednecks named Donna Jo and Buelah...
