Mural of Beto as a Superhero Pops up in East Austin
By Spectrum News Staff  |  October 23, 2018 @9:18 AM

AUSTIN, Texas – A mural popped up in East Austin on the first day of early voting in Texas on Monday, painting one candidate as a superhero for the local community.

Artist and activist Chris Rogers hopes his piece, “Beto for Texas,” will inspire hope in Texans ahead of the close race between Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-El Paso, and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.

In the mural O’Rouke can be seen in front of a Texas flag revealing an emblem with a “B” underneath his ordinary clothes as an homage to the comic book character Superman.

Rogers said his goal was to show that “out of the darkness comes the light.” The mural took the artist 40 hours to complete.

Rogers has it backwards.  I'd say that when he executed a hit and run, he left the light and went into the darkness to escape.

Boo.  He's mixing his comics.  Superman doesn't respond to the Bat Signal.  :nono:

Saw a few photoshops- B turned into Build the Wall, and one of illegals using Beatoff as hand and footholds to climb over the wall. Good stuff.

And the blind squirrel ... how can one forget the blind squirrel that he saved?  You know, the important things that would help Texans and America.   :rolling:
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Oh, great. Another self-hating white guy chimes in idolizing a phony politician, and both propped up by an adoring media. Who could of seen that coming?

A born rich White Liberal kid who rides a skateboard and jams on bongos. That just described most of Austin. Of course he would be a hero there. He's one of them.

After the election when he moves to California, Beto (using his street name) will win every election he enters. That is where he belongs. Or maybe in New York City.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
